What I see is you have a mix of backwards and forward slashes '\ /'. Also on my installation ffmpeg.exe which is in the Pixinsight/bin directory just shows without having to have the whole path listed.

Here is a screen shot with mine.

Size shouldn't be an issue. Here I re-sampled my images to 4608x6912 182Mb per file and 22 images. Blink completed the mp4.
