making a video from single frames

if you have exported a directory full of single frames from a processing sketch or a tool like toonloop or gimp you can combine them to a video using mencoder like this.

mencoder "mf://*.jpg" -mf fps=12 -o output.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg

the mplayer manual has more details in case you need them

here is a sample video i made using toonloop and some colored buildingblocks

    Hi I'm trying to create a remote desktop presenter with WCF. Do you think i need this tool for showing the video to the user in the other side or its better to compress pictures and transmit them over network and just show them as something like video? Is there any better way to achive this? realy thanks for any advise...
