I am trying to combine an audio (.wav) file and picture file (.png) into a video file. The video's length should be the same length as the input audio. Also, the output video should be youtube-friendly (be able to upload to YouTube).
I've tried a couple commands, but the duration of the video file produced is always way too long.
The audio file has a length 00:00:10.71.
Command 1
ffmpeg -loop 1 -framerate 1 -i 000.png -i 000.wav -c:a aac -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 0 -shortest out.mp4
output:
$ ffmpeg -loop 1 -framerate 1 -i 000.png -i 000.wav -c:a aac -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 0 -shortest out.mp4

Command 3
$ ffmpeg -framerate 1 -i 000.png -i 000.wav -c:a aac -c:v libx264 -preset fast -crf 0 out.mp4
The duration is fine for this one: 00:00:10.77. This one is a lot faster than the others to process. The output video isn't youtube-friendly though, likely because it only has 1 frame. Full ffprobe output
Why is this happening and how do I get the video to match the length of the input audio?
