Parse folder with image sequence(s) to mp4 videos with ffmpeg (tested on windows)

Sequence of images to h264 / h265

• should be py2/3 compatible, haven't tried a lot of cases
• sometimes python (.py) files won't work directly in the shell:sendto folder. You instead need to create a .bat file and point to a python executable like so (remember to add the current file variable if your python script needs it like I do)
• Will ask for a ffmpeg exe on first run, saves the path as a pickle in your userprofile.
• Dec23 update: removed tkinter and uses powershell for file location. It's win only for now anyways. Also updated the .bat file to use whatever windows uses for .py files.
• Dec23 update2: due to WindowsLogic© you can't use "start" to launch a .py file with arguments reliably. It's better to point to a python.exe + flags. Sucks. Solution can be to pass 1 argument as the new window title and retrieve it using some nasty code: https://stackoverflow.com/a/58355052 but I this is getting ridiculous
