I'm a new user and I have just understand the concept of the animation in
POVray. I opened the example animation file in the POVray programme, with
the ini file, and I can see the ball moving. But until now I cannot see
anything that is in mpeg or avi file to browse the movies. Would you please
teach me about how to make animation in mpeg file?
Sorry for my poor english.

There are several things:
1. The variable "clock". It moves from 0 to 1 during the
beginning to the end of the animation.
2. The ini-settings KFI and KFF. You set them
like this:
+KFI1 +KFF150
This would result in 150 frames numbered 001 to 150.
3. An MPEG-Encoder, like TMPEGENC
(http://www.tmpgenc.net/) can then load the images
and encode an MPEG from it.
Thats a very rough version.
The ini-settings belong either into the commandline or the
accompanying ini-file, the clock into the scene-file. E.g. if
an object should move upward during the animation,
using translate y*10*clock would move it 10 units upward
along the y-acis while the clock moves from 0 to 1.
Last but not least, POV-Ray outputs a handful of images,
which are each a frame of the animation. POV-Ray doesn't
encode MPEG or AVI by itself, you need an Encoder for
that.
