Posted: Thu Aug 25, 2005 8:27 am Post subject: cinelerra: how do I make jpegs into a movie? |
|
|
I'm making a stop-motion animation and I have already taken soome pictures. I'm trying to watch them as a video in cinelerra, but I'm not sure how to do it.
I've tried loading all of the pictures as a concatenated sequence and I have also tried dragging each picture from the resources window and putting it on the video bar, but that only causes the new picture to replace the old one. I'm hoping someone here has used cinelerra for this... |

I tried and tried to do this with cinelerra. Unfortunately I do not think it has that capability. |

Yes you can do this with cinelerra also with transcode IIRC.
Here is a howto using avidemux.

This technique is used for converting quake3 demo screenshots into a movie. |

How can you get cinelerra to do this? |

Try:- File > Load files > [select your .jpg's] concatenate to existing files. |

That didn't work for me (it makes a video sequence, but the sequence does not include every frame and it is too quick).
And avidemux keeps crashing on me, but that may be because I am using it from winxp (I can't access the internet here from my gentoo box). |

I worked with it a little bit quite some time ago. If I remember correctly, it brings the picture in coverring a very small portion of the timeline...maybe even one frame. You have to zoom way way in in order to see it and expand it, though I don't remember the specifics of how to do this.

Ok, I've figured out how to show all of the pictures on the timebar. I probably figure it out on my own eventually, but could someone tell me how to make the video play slower or how to extend the amount of time that each fram uses?
well, I found that it is necessary to go into >settings>format and change the framerate. Still, I'm not able to make cinelerra show the frames in a solid way so that it shows each frame and shows each frame for the same amount of time.
I think I'll try stopmotion. |

sorry this reply might be late....
When you have pictures in the timeline they are 1 frame long by default. You need to zoom in then click on the right edge of the frame with the MIDDLE mouse button. This will let you lengthen the amount of frames a picture takes up. Zoom out and repeat until you have as many frames as you'd like.
Good luck. With camera automation you can do some pretty cool stuff with pics in cinelerra.... |

I don't know if this helps you, but you can convert them to gifs and then make an animated gif very easily with gifsicle. _________________ My log saw what happened to Laura Palmer. Go ahead. Ask it. |
