  1. I have a bunch of Motion JPEGs taken with my Fuji digital camera. They are just 320x240 video with no sound and are in Motion JPEG format. The goal is to get them to SVCD, but I need to get them into a format that I can write/import to DVD Movie Factory first which is MPEG. Can anyone point me in the right direction, ive looked around on the forum and havent found anything yet.

    Thanks in advance

    I'm sorry, but I cannot help you directly with your goal.
    If your files are really Motion-JPEG than there are tools that can cut them (back) to seperate JPEG's. These JPEG's can be fed back into a tool that accepts them as input to make an MPEG. Motion-JPEG is not standardized (as a consequence some tools may not accept it as input) JPEG is. So this would be the way to go.

    But also let me make a few remarks ...

    What type of Fuji digital camera do you have?
    Are they really Motion JPEGs?

    The reason why I ask is because of the following:
    I have a Sony DSC-S85 digital camera which has an MPEG (movie) EX feature. Despite what most people (even at dpreview.com!) say, MPEG EX is definitely NOT Motion JPEG (or MJPEG), but it is MPEG-1 compliant. It has keyframes (the JPEG as MPEG I-frame) and 2 (dummy) P-frames per GOP (Group Of Pictures). These P-frames consume bytes in the bitstream.

    Motion-JPEG doesn't have these P-frames. They are just sequence of JPEG's. And I guess without sound?

    I studied the file structure of MPEG EX and I'm working on a way to make this MPEG EX file (Sony proprietary) out of a pile of same size/quality JPEG's with software.

    The first thing to try is open them in VirtualDub.
    If that works you have it made.
    You can just frameserve to an encoder.
