I'm creating mjpeg stream from image files using ffmpeg and write it to ffserver's feed:
sudo ffmpeg -loop 1 -i fon.jpeg -vcodec mjpeg -f mjpeg http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm

So, what is wrong in this streaming example, if I have no problem when I substitute streams to the files?
I create a mjpeg file using the same parameters 9i.e. file is an output insteadof stream)

UPD. I have realized, that i fed file1.ffm instead of file.ffm; that caused some ffserver problem:

So, what is the problem now?
the short answer is: you can't do that, at least not in that way. ffserver decides the expected input format by looking at the feed output name. when it sees you sending the data to feed.ffm it assumes ffm data, and so when libavformat/utils.c routine avformat_open_input calls s->iformat->read_header(s), it uses the ffm_read_header routine in libavformat/ffmdec.c:
/* header */
tag = avio_rl32(pb);
if (tag == MKTAG('F', 'F', 'M', '2'))
return ffm2_read_header(s);
if (tag != MKTAG('F', 'F', 'M', '1')) {
ret = AVERROR_INVALIDDATA;
goto fail;
}
here is where it sees the <ff><d8><ff><e0> at the beginning of the JPEG data, sees it is not equal to FFM2 or FFM1, and fails with "Invalid data found when processing input", although that message is never shown.
I can't yet tell you the right way to do it, but at least now you know what is happening.

I received a .raw frame format (here is a sample) which contains the raw pixel values of a frame. And I've been told I can convert it to an image (.bmp or .png) using FFMpeg using following command. However, when trying, it doesn't work.
dd bs=16 dumpB4EncodeHLSAfterEncodeBuf1200IP_TS/dumpedYuv/image-1140.raw | ffmpeg -f rawvideo -video_size 2160 2160 -pixel_format nv12 -i - yuv.bmp
What is the problem? Is there any ways to avoid use of dd and purely do it from FFmpeg?
Here is the error:

Updated Answer
Now that we know the correct size and format, we can do the conversion easily with ImageMagick:
magick -depth 8 -size 1920x1080 rgb:frame.raw result.png
Or, as you wanted, with ffmpeg:
ffmpeg -y -f rawvideo -s 1920x1080 -pix_fmt rgb24 -i frame.raw image.bmp
Original Answer
You raw file is either not NV12 or not 2160x2160. NV12 uses 1.5 bytes per pixel, which would mean you should have
2160 * 2160 * 1.5 = 6,998,400 bytes
but you actually have 6,220,800 so there is something wrong with your information - either the file is incomplete, or it is not that format or it is not that size.
If it was NV12, the first 2160x2160 bytes would be the greyscale (or Luminance/Y) channel, but even if we get the first 2160x2160 bytes as greyscale and ignore any trailing colour information, it is still wrong:
head -c $((2160*2160)) frame.raw | magick -depth 8 -size 2160x2160 gray:- image.bmp
Please check and identify the provenance and characteristics of your raw data.
I'm trying to use mp4 format coding (fourcc=0x21) on OpenCV 3.2 without success. Probably I have a problem with my Ubuntu 18.04 setup but currently I'm running out of ideas how to fix it. First, I recompiled FFMPEG with x264 support. Than, recompiled OpenCV (with contrib and OPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE=ON, WITH_FFMPEG=ON). It is still not working.
I cannot use fourcc different than 0x21. I mean.. I cannot use another codec.
Example:
>>> import cv2
>>> out = cv2.VideoWriter('output.mp4', 0x21, 20.0, (640,480))
OpenCV: FFMPEG: tag 0x00000021/'!???' is not found (format 'mp4 / (null)')'
However, this is working fine (other fourcc, codec):
>>> out = cv2.VideoWriter('output.mp4',0x31637661 , 20.0, (640,480))

Problem
Recently I uploaded App preview video to my app in iTunesConnect
It looks like it was uploaded successfully, I was able to play it but there was a text overlay on the video preview:
Processing App Preview
The app preview can take up to 24 hours to process.
I have closed Safari and go to sleep. Next morning I see this

Who actually does this video review? Humans or machines?
Is there any automation script to do this validation before upload?
Silly me, looks like 24 hours wasn't passed, once I waited more time this problem just gone
P.S. only Safari show this, there is no error in Google Chrome
P.P.S sometimes it happens even for successfully processed video but after a page refresh, the problem is gone
i have a rails application and change to cookie_store to active_record_store, but when i used a converter video in ffmpeg i getting this error
Maybe someone can help me to solve it?

I don't think your choice of cookie store had anything to do with that. This happened because you chose a video file with this particular input size (1280x720).
Error is:
[libx264 # 0xa1105e0] height not divisible by 2 (720x405)
There are plenty questions on this site about this error but in the end it boils down to a simple answer: "make sure encoded picture has even width and height". In your case output picture size (720x405) is passed down from your site code so you need to fix it there.
I need to compute the frame differences between a source video and a compressed one.
For now I'm using OpenCV with Java, by extracting each frame and doing a simple difference, but it's quite slow (working a 0.5 fps, meaning that a 500 frames video will take more than 15 mins) so I was thinking to move to FFMPEG.
FFMPEG feels a lot faster (everything's done under 1 minute) but it has one big issue that makes the results useless: when compressing the source file, done with FFMPEG too, an extra gray frame is added at the beginning and this fakes the results because different frames are compared.
This is what I'm doing now (knowing that the extra frame messes it all):
ffmpeg -y -i src.avi -i compressed.avi -filter_complex "blend=all_mode=difference,hue=s=0" -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -c:a copy difference.avi
To fix the frame issue I was trying to remove the first frame by re-encoding the compressed video with this command
ffmpeg -y -ss 0.02 -i compressed.mpg -an -f mpeg2video compressed-cut.mpg"
(Note that -ss is 0.02 because it's a 50 fps video, so I did 1/FPS as suggested here)
But I get this response
Output file is empty, nothing was encoded (check -ss / -t / -frames parameters if used)
So, finally, the question is: since extracting all the frames and then compute differences with OpenCV is really slow, how can I use FFMPEG to produce a video containing the difference between two sources while keeping in mind that one of them has an extra frame at the beginning?
EDIT: I wanted to avoid posting endless console outputs but since you asked for it, here we go.

The second command made everything work while the second one in the first part didn't (the one with the -ss option), so I could be quite happy about it but I'm not that sure if FFMPEG duplicates the first frame for every video or if it's just related to the one I'm using now, so it could be better to start off with a compressed video that has the same frame count of the original one.
So let's get to one final question: why does FFMPEG add a duplicated first frame at the beginning of the compressed video and how can I avoid that?
Encoding with
ffmpeg -i "720p50_mobcal_ter.avi" -c:v mpeg2video "720p50_mobcal_ter.mpg"
instead of
ffmpeg -i "720p50_mobcal_ter.avi" -an -f mpeg2video -y "720p50_mobcal_ter.mpg"
prevents the creation of the duplicate frame and makes everything work correctly.
