For such mission, i'd recommend to go programming using ffmpeg
libraries API, if you can.
Or split your mission into elementary easy steps of conversion, don't
mind that it'll take many ffmpeg launches for now. I mean:
1. Cut off needed places of source media files to separate files.
2. Concatenate them as needed (possibly inserting silence where needed).
3. Create video (without audio) from images sequence.
4. Merge audio with video.
