I am using ffmpeg on JEtson Xavier NX to split a video into frames as follows

ffmpeg -i input.mkv  -r 30 %2d.jpg

This generates output as

1.jpg
2.jpg
3.jpg...etc

However I want to start the counter from a custom number and not 1. For example

32.jpg
33.jpg
....etc

The starting number of the frame should based on some variable that I want to initialize and then it should proceed labeling sequentially from there. How do I do this?

@KunalSharma Is there no way to start off the naming itself from a custom value? through a variable or something? – Akshay Acharya Oct 22 '21 at 07:23
