ffmpeg picture slideshow with audio - ffmpeg

I'm trying to make a batch of videos for uploading to youtube. My emphasis is on the audio (mostly MP3, with some WMA). I have several image files that need to be picked up at random to go with the audio (ie) display an image for 5 seconds before showing the next. I want the video to stop when the audio stream ends. How should I use ffmpeg to achieve this ?

change setting delay audio while stream video by ffmpeg?

I have 2 rtmp, one of them for audio playback and one for streaming video. I mix all of them using ffmpeg, but I want to change the delay between audio and video while running ffmpeg. How can I do that?

Scalable solution for converting an image sequence to video

We are developing a stop motion app for kids and schools.
So what we have is:
A sequence of images and audio files (no overlapping audio, in v1. But there can be gaps between them)
What we need to do:
Combine the images to a video with a frame rate between 1-12 fps
Add multiple audio files at a given start times
encode with H265 to mp4 format
I would really like to avoid maintaining a VM or Azure batch jobs running ffmpeg jobs if possible.
Is there any good frameworks or third party APIs?
I have only found transloadit as the closes match but they don't have the option to add multiple audio files.
Any suggestions or experience in this area is very appreciated.
You've mentionned FFmpeg in your tag and it is a tool that checks all the boxes.
For the first part of your project (making a video from images) you should check this link. To sum up, you'll use this kind of command:
ffmpeg -r 12 -f image2 -i PATH_TO_FOLDER/frame%d.png PATH_TO_FOLDER/output.mp4
-r 12 being your framerate, here 12. You control the output format with the file extension. To control the video codec check out this link, you'll need to use the option -c:v libx265before the filename of your output.
With FFmpeg you add audio as you add video, with -i option followed by your filename. If you want to cut audio you should seek in your audio with -ss -t two options good for that. If you want and audio to start at a certain point, check out -itoffset, you can find a lot of examples.

Can ffmpeg wait until new input?

I use ffmpeg for video streaming, but I have images and images convert to video then streaming. I want encoder wait the image but ffmpeg starts and makes all image then close.

FFmpeg Images to Video and Streaming

I've a C# program generating JPEG images in realtime, i need to (continuously) generate a video from the images and stream it (also in realtime).
I've used ffmpeg to transcode an input video source and stream it, doesn't ffmpeg have an option to get the input as a set of images(always being generated) and make the video out of it ?
Cheers
Actually I used VLC for the streaming....
Actually I just found at that I could:
ffmpeg -f image2 -i img%d.jpg /tmp/a.mpg
But i need to tell ffmpeg to keep doing it, I mean, if it doesn't find another image ffmpeg should wait for another one to be generated... is this possible ?
