Re: [ferret_users] convert GIFs to movie
Just go a message that the forwarding of mails with scripts attached may
have caused problems. They can be found in the list's archive:

Ryo,
I use mecoder with the msmpeg4v2 codec. I is played well even by an
out-of-the-box Windows Media Player. Attached is the installation
script I use and a two pass (Please don't ask me why. It is based on
some tutorial of which I don't seem to be able to find the link now
and mostly try and error ...) encoding with 8 frames per second (fps).
Note that I convert the GIFs to PNG before encoding the movie. I've
had problems with using JPEGs from different sources (when including a
short introductory part into the movie) which were not present when
using PNGs.
I also used mencoder to convert the resulting AVI to FLV which then
can be embedded in any website together with a free FLV player (like
this one: http://www.platipus.nl/flvplayer/ ... not sure about the
license ...). Sometimes that's a good back-up solution which can be
played on virtually every computer with a recent browser + flash
player. Think I started here
http://www.jeremychapman.info/cms/mencoder-avi-to-flv-conversion to
learn how to do that.
Regards,
Willi
