I've got a windows program that does wav to mpg, and I found an au to mpg that doesn't work for sour owl sh*; it may be pilot error though. video yes! My big problem here is a) transferring gobbs of frames from the macintoy people that have frame grabbers, and/or b) convincing my boss that I really need a matrox. I just grabbed the latest mpeg_encode from ucb, compiled and ran. it's pretty trivial, they've got several sample parameter files, that you can hack from. as for cool mpeg utilities- have a look-see at http://www.visiblelight.com/mpeg/resource/software/source/un ix.htp `mpeg_edit' kind of works. It's supposed to let you do `fade to black', `screen wipes', and what not, but its got some problems. Someone that knows C++ really needs to look at it. mpeg_encode works fine. most of the other utilities that I tried compiled and ran. eric. > > Tnks, > Amancio > -- erich@lodgenet.com erich@rrnet.com
