| 232 | |
| 233 <P><B>MEncoder</B> is capable of creating movies from one or more JPEG or PNG | |
| 234 files. With simple framecopy it can create MJPEG (Motion JPEG) or MPNG | |
| 235 (Motion PNG) files.</P> | |
| 236 | |
| 237 <P><B><I>Explanation of the process</I></B></P> | |
| 238 | |
| 239 <P><B>MEncoder</B> <I>decodes</I> the input image(s) with an available MJPEG | |
| 240 video codec (when decoding PNGs, it will use the internal PNG decoder). By | |
| 241 default it uses <CODE>ffmjpeg</CODE>, so you have to compile with libavcodec | |
| 242 support (which is recommended anyways). Its disadvantage is that it can't | |
| 243 handle some JPEG types (green image will be encoded for these). Use some | |
| 244 external utility to convert those images into edible format.<BR> You can | |
| 245 freely choose any other MJPEG decoder, like <CODE>mcmjpg32.dll</CODE> | |
| 246 (MainConcept Motion JPEG) if installed, and after checking | |
| 247 <CODE>codecs.conf</CODE> and checking the <CODE>videocodec</CODE> line which | |
| 248 refers to this file, you'll learn you have to use the <CODE>-vc mjpeg</CODE> | |
| 249 option for it. | |
| 250 </P> | |
| 251 | |
| 252 <P><B>MEncoder</B> then feeds the decoded image to the chosen video compressor | |
| 253 (DivX4, Xvid, ffmpeg msmpeg4, etc...). Watch for the PNG decoder, as | |
| 254 currently it can output only to RGB formats, thus can't be used with codecs | |
| 255 that require YUV as input, like DivX4 or ffmpeg's msmpeg4.</P> | |
