There is a "png " codec that can be used to store lossless frames in quicktime. I think it's really intended for production/editing use, but I've run into it once in the wild: http://www.veer.com/download/moveyourfeet.mov That's a music video done in the style of low-res videogame graphics, where solid colors and hard pixels are desired. The downside is that while the Apple quicktime player (on MacOS and Windows) can display it, I have yet to find any Linux video player that recognizes the codec, even with the win32 binary dlls loaded. -Dave Dodge _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list Mjpeg-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
