Thanks for the advice. I hadn't read any of the man pages in full. I got the commands from the HOWTO and just ran the commands and fixed any errors it spat out (which is why I added the -n n to the yuvscaler command). I've altered the command sequence to:
jpeg2yuv -f 29.97 -I p -j %06d.jpg | yuvscaler -O VCD | mpeg2enc -f 0 -o camera.m1v I still use yuvscaler because without it the mpg looks really blocky. Doing the above command seems to have fixed the slider issue in at least WMP. I have tried this in any other software since I don't have any way of exporting my linux display across our network. The original images are captured at 640x480 from the web cam. -----Original Message----- From: Bernhard Praschinger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 10:25 AM To: Kevin Brown Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Mjpeg-users] Mpg timing Hallo > I found this set of tools when I was looking for a way to take a ton of > jpgs and turn them into a movie file.

I do not know which size the images have. The framerate is a bit wrong for NTSC try using something like that: 30000:1001, the exact framerate. Than you should not need the -n n. When you scale down to VCD size why do you want to encode a SVCD MPEG 2 ? -f 0/1/2 would fit much better. > The images are from a web cam that is taking snapshots every 10 minutes > and has currently captured about 400 frames.

Do you have some output when you multiplex the stream ? Is mpeg2enc writing something strange at the end of the encoding ? Have you tried some other player like mplayer/xine/vlc if they have the same ptroblem. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
