| Hello, I have created one animation for my game and would like to ask if is it possible to load it as a video in Blitzmax , either as .avi or mpg or .fli For now I have a sequence of images for my animation and there are a lots (330) and I show them one by one. Is it possible to create a video file and load it with blitzmax. (Not a full screen video , but a video which will be able to appear on any position on the screen). Is there any module for this? Thank you :) |

| Pantson created an Ogg Theora module as well as an MPEG 2 module: http://www.pantson.com/mods/ I'd recommend using the Theora module, since the MPEG one is GPL which would require you to release your own program + source under the GPL license as well. There's a ton of free video converters out there that will allow you to convert your existing video to theora. Brucey also created a theora module, which can play back video + synced sound. Don't know the current URL of that one. |

| I downloaded the ffpmeg to theora converter and I would like to convert a series of images to theora format. The help file says: ffmpeg2theora frame%06d.png -o output.ogv My images are for example img001 , img002 to img330. How do I convert all of them to one single .ogv file? I don't understand the help above. :) |

| I found how to convert a lots of images: ffmpeg2theora img%03d.png -o output.ogv But the converted file have error palette. And when I try to run the example I have an error: C:/BlitzMax/lib/libmingwex.a(pformat.o):pformat.c:(.text+0x355): undefined reference to `__umoddi3' As I see the file is larger than my series of images and also there is no sound. It seems to show my images separately is easier. |
