More frustration as I impatiently try to create an animation from an example
in POVRAY...
OK, so my frames are rendered. The help file reads:
"a number of programs available that will take a series of still image files
(such as POV-Ray outputs) and assemble them into animations. Such programs
can produce AVI, MPEG, FLI/FLC, QuickTime, or even animated GIF files (for
use on the World Wide Web). The trick, therefore, is how to produce the
frames. That, of course, is where POV-Ray comes in..."
So what software do I need to put together the .tga files produced by the
render example pentmap ? Isn't this included with POVRAY?
TIA,
Mark.

I have several image-to-animation utility programs listed on the links pages at
povray.org. See -

Compiling animations from still images is not a feature included with POV-Ray.

If you are using a Mac, you can create movies straight from povray sources.
That is, povray for mac allows you to choose the compilation of movies
instead of sequences of images.
Since the majority uses windows, I think tga2avi is a very good tool to put
the sequence together.
All the best
Fidel.

The drawback of this is that you don't know what the results are going
to be until the render is done, and then you don't have the original
uncompressed frames to work from, so you have to rerender if the
compression settings don't work out.

Yes, but for quick renderings it is very useful. I usually use Adobe
Premiere or Final Cut Pro to put the frames together, but when I want to see
something quickly just render the movie as .mov file.
By the way, do you know of any good mpeg encoder for Macs?
All the best
Fidel.
