xv is a nice program, but I don't think it allows non-interactive use.

I'd take a close look at "convert" from the ImageMagick pagkage, from
your favourite ftp server or
ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/applications/ImageMagick/ImageMagick-3.6.1.tar.gz
(the version # might have changed).

I compiled it on 2.1-stable nearly OOTB.  You'll  have  to  fetch  the
latest JPEG library too, from  ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg  or  any
other source (should be called something like jpegv5b.tar.gz).

If you have any problem building those, mail me.
