Q:

ffmpeg: scale images prior to crossfade blend using filter_complex

I'm attempting to create an mp4 of one image crossfaded into another using the blend filter and filter_complex, as illustrated in this answer.
But I also want to scale both images to 480p prior to blending.  Here's the command I'm using:
ffmpeg \
-loop 1 -t 1 -i field.jpg \
-loop 1 -t 1 -i island.jpg \
-filter_complex \
"[0:v]scale=hd480[v0]; \
 [1:v]scale=hd480[v1]; \
 [v1][v0]blend=all_expr='A*(if(gte(T,0.5),1,T/0.5))+B*(1-(if(gte(T,0.5),1,T/0.5)))'[b1v]; \
 [v0][b1v][v1]concat=n=3:v=1:a=0 [v]" -map "[v]" -threads 0 -preset ultrafast -y out.mp4

However it seems concat fails with the following output:
Input #0, image2, from 'field.jpg':

Both images are 4000x2000px, field.jpg and island.jpg.
Really appreciate any help.  Using a recent nightly build:
ffmpeg version N-81188-gcebad64-static

A:

Use
ffmpeg -loop 1 -t 1 -i field.jpg -loop 1 -t 1 -i island.jpg  
       -filter_complex "[0:v]scale=-2:480,split[v0][cv0];
                        [1:v]scale=-2:480,split[v1][cv1];
 [v1][v0]blend=all_expr='A*(if(gte(T,0.5),1,T/0.5))+B*(1-(if(gte(T,0.5),1,T/0.5)))'[b1v];
 [cv0][b1v][cv1]concat=n=3:v=1:a=0 [v]" -map "[v]" -threads 0 -preset ultrafast -y out.mp4

Input pads generated inside a filter complex can only be consumed once. So, I put a split to generate one copy for the concat. I also changed the scale to -2:480 to preserve the aspect ratio. You can revert it to hd480 but web players that don't respect aspect ratio flags will show the video distorted.
