I'm trying to find a halfway decent animation package to make still images
into movies. I tried using MS movie maker included with windows, but the
smallest time interval with that is 1/8th of a second, and its still very
choppy. I'm trying to find something that goes down to 16 frames per second
or ever 32 frames per second, and be able to add soundtracks to the
animation. Any body know of any pieces of software (GNU or commercial) that
will do this and are decently priced?

I personally use MainActor (commercial software) under Linux. There is also
a Windows version.
It does everything you're asking for and is available for download as a demo
version.

If it's enough to create a video file from a bunch of image files,
then VirtualDub does the job pretty well.

I use TMPGEnc and it is good but you need a plugin if you want to use png
files.

As you've noticed, there's a few tools out there. Unfortunately, most
quality video editing programs don't support importing images into
video, so many of us who do this a lot use multiple tools. Personally,
I use virtualdub (free) to import the images and convert them to an AVI.
I then use a video editing package (Adobe Premiere, usually, which is
quite expensive) for additional editing (adding sound, splicing together
multiple animations, incorporating animations into video's, etc).
A completely free video editing option, if you're running linux, is
cinelerra: http://heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php3
Personally speaking, I prefer the CVS version, as it supports more
features including HDTV: http://cvs.cinelerra.org/
It's pretty good; I imagine once they add a few more features I'll
probably drop adobe for this.

Hmm, I'm having some trouble with this. How does one combine a set of
images using TMPGEnc (2.5)? I seem to be able to pull in a single .png (or
other image file), but how do I pull a bunch in?

Oh, never mind. Totally unintuitive, but it appears if you load the first
image in a series (test001.png - test100.png) then TMPGEnc automatically
figures out what to do.
Plus, I found the solution in a thread from last year just seconds after I
posted my question. My searching skills need improvement.
Anyhow, sorry for the intrusion.
