You could try to use transcode: http://www.theorie.physik.uni-goettingen.de/~ostreich/transcode/ I suspect that any image format that's supported by ImageMagick will be supported as an input. Here's an example (also including the reverse operation, movie-to-pictures): http://www.theorie.physik.uni-goettingen.de/~ostreich/transcode/html/anim.html Just replace "-y xvid" with "-y mpeg" in the example (to export to MPEG, not to DivX) and it should simply do what you want. Here are some examples pertaining the mpeg export module: http://www.theorie.physik.uni-goettingen.de/~ostreich/transcode/html/mpeg.html You could use any export module instead of -y mpeg, to create not just MPEG 1 or 2 movies or (S)VCD/DVD, but also DivX/AVI (higher compression and better quality than MPEG2), etc. Here are all the modules available: http://www.theorie.physik.uni-goettingen.de/~ostreich/transcode/html/modules.html There's no need to search for RPM packages, just download the tarball and rebuild it into an RPM with this command: rpmbuild -ta transcode-......tar.gz Some RPMs are available at freshrpms.net, if rebuilding is not your thing (although is highly recommended, for reasons that will be explained below). Be aware that, when building transcode, some modules are self-contained and will be built no matter what, while some other rely on external libraries and codecs. For the MPEG export module you don't need any external library, transcode comes with it's own native MPEG codec. Just compile it, and the module is there. (There is an alternative MPEG export module, different than the native one, which requires mjpegtools to be installed before building it, and some people prefer it over the native one, but that's another story.) To enable other modules (if you need any fancy stuff), you may need to install various codecs and libraries before compiling transcode. Example: if you want DivX export, grab and install the DivX codec (commercial implementation at divx.com, open source implementation at xvid.org) before building transcode. A convenient xvid codec package (fancy name for a different DivX implementation), along with various other libraries and codecs, can be found at freshrpms.net To verify what formats are supported by your current transcode build, just check out the /usr/lib/transcode/ directory.
