Your FFmpeg is ancient. There have been 17873 commits to FFmpeg since
your version r19289, and I believe FFmpeg 0.5 is even older. Is there a
reason you're not using something more recent?

This message indicates that ffmpeg probably does not know the size of
the input. Try adding -s as an input option (before -i), such as "-s
