[Cin] Images sequence

[Phyllis Smith]

The ffmpeg TOC file does not need to contain the list of files.

Here is how to test this for TIFF files:
1) render using options: ffmpeg / tif
2) for ease of use, put the files in /tmp/test/test%5d.tif   (so create
/tmp/test directory first)
3) do the render and you will see that test%5d.tiff will contain ONLY:
 IMAGE2
# Frame rate: 29.970030
# Width: 352
# Height: 240
and all of the test00###.tiff files exist in the /tmp/test directory
4) now just add a video track and drag the test%5d.tiff from the Media
folder of the Resources window and it works correctly
    or later just load /tmp/test%5d.tiff and it works.

Now for the interesting part, yesterday and this morning DPX was working on
my builds and AppImages from October, November, and December UNTIL I switch
to using TIFF instead of DPX.  Now DPX no longer works so there is
something going on and I have not figured it out yet.  Also, yesterday, I
tried it on Arch dated 10/30/2020 and DPX did not work (have to check to
see if TIFF does).  The correct contents of the dpx file is:
IMAGE2
# Frame rate: 29.970030
# Width: 352
# Height: 240
with NO listing of each individual dpx files needed.
