-start_number is an option for the image file demuxer. The muxer does
not support this, as far as I know. However, after looking at your
attachment, this may not apply to what you're using because it is not
from FFmpeg: we can not support third-party products here. For an
explanation see:

If you use ffmpeg then we can provide more support.

Please do not top-post on this mailing list and please fix your mail
client to properly quote so we can more easily provide answers. This
request is not so we can be rude to new users, but so we can be more
efficient (or perhaps lazy) since we are all volunteers.
