I am trying to flip 180 degrees parts of a video file from action camera. When i was using

"[clpABCD][clpEF][clpG]concat[out1]" -" instead of "[clpABCD][clpEFG]concat[out1]" -"

ffmpeg said Too many inputs specified for the "concat" filter !!!! Why?

ffmpeg -i video_output_02.avi -filter_complex \
  "[0:v]trim=start=0:duration=516[clpA];\
   [0:v]trim=start=516:duration=1,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS[clpB];\

The command that "is working"

ffmpeg -i video_output_02.avi -filter_complex \
 "[0:v]trim=start=0:duration=516[clpA];\
  [0:v]trim=start=516:duration=1,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS[clpB];\

  [clpA][clpBf]concat[clpAB];\
  [0:v]trim=start=517:duration=1204,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS[clpC];\
  [0:v]trim=start=1721:duration=155,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS[clpD];\
  [clpD]vflip, hflip[clpDf];\
  [clpC][clpDf]concat[clpCD];\
  [clpAB][clpCD]concat[clpABCD];\
  [0:v]trim=start=1876:duration=581,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS[clpE];\
  [0:v]trim=start=2457:duration=24,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS[clpF];\
  [clpF]vflip, hflip[clpFf];\
  [clpE][clpFf]concat[clpEF];\
  [0:v]trim=start=2481:duration=253,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS[clpG];\
  [clpEF][clpG]concat[clpEFG];\
  [clpABCD][clpEFG]concat[out1]" -map [out1]  -crf 14  -vcodec libx264  -vb 20M  Hflip_2.mp4

The concat filter has an option to set no. of inputs. Its default value is 2.

Change to [clpABCD][clpEF][clpG]concat=n=3[out1].
