There is a program, IMGCON, posted in povray.binaries.utilities, that has a
linux version [haven't tested the linux version yet, but the windows
version works fine].
(http://news.povray.org/povray.binaries.utilities/thread/%3Cweb.42302cb4bb0c8108693a417a0%40news.povray.org%3E/)

It creates a raw AVI file, which can be re-encoded with your favourite linux
encoding program (maybe mencoder?) or transferred to a Windows machine
(probably gzipped or bzipped, since it'll be huge) and encoded there.

This isn't one app per se, but if you batch two programs together that do
their job well, it might give better results than one program doing both
jobs not-so-well.  *shrugs*
