I (sort of) read Carl Eugen's answer as a remark that this is a
library, which is not necessarily driven by ffmpeg. So the message may
need to be generic, such as:
"Could not get frame filename number %d from pattern '%s' (either "
"set -updatefirst, or use a pattern like %%03d within the filename "
"pattern, or ensure that the application requests only one single "
"frame (e.g. \"-frames:v 1\" option to ffmpeg)\n",
(Note that "-updatefirst" is also an ffmpeg command line option if you
prepend the dash. You could write: "... use the \"updatefirst\" muxer
option, [...]")

P.S.: Some muxers have a similar situation, referring to ffmpeg command
line options from the library:
av_log(s, AV_LOG_ERROR, "H.264 bitstream malformed, "
"no startcode found, use the video bitstream filter
'h264_mp4toannexb' to fix it "
"('-bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb' option with ffmpeg)\n");
