Hallo > Is there a way with mjpeg tools to make such a 'control file,' that > just instructs a viewer to show the follow files, with some frame rate > and other data? And are there viewers for such a format? I think that this is not really possible witht he mjpegtools. I think that some people have generated something in the way you want it for DVD. Using several short files. Conbinig them with a menu for a DVD.

Might be possible the that libquicktime in combination with gmerlin is able to handel that files. The libquicktime is closer to the quicktime format than the mjpegtools are. (http://libquicktime.sourceforge.net/, http://gmerlin.sourceforge.net/) The mjpegtools "only" use the libquicktime as data container. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!
