Creating an MPG from an image...?

[Jiglet]

If I want to create a video file that is just an image that is like five seconds long or so, how would i do that? I did search the forums with several different searches and couldn't find anything on this. If this is in the wrong forum I apologize.

Hi-

Here's one example, although I don't know what the image video is to be used for:

ImageSource("D:\Gozu\Menu\Menu.jpg",End=125)
AssumeFPS(25)

That'll give you 5 seconds of repeated JPG at 25fps. I just made an AVI using something similar, although with some adjustments, it can just as easily make an .mpv or m2v.

If it flips over upside down after the first frame (as mine did for reasons I don't quite understand), then add this afterwards:

FreezeFrame(0,125,125)

This assumes you're comfortable using AviSynth.

Theres a slide show application (freeware) that produces an AVI from a selected list of jpegs. Can't remember the name. Have a browse of the tools section for slideshow freeware.

That would be Slideshow Movie Maker, a great piece of software!

If you want to create an mpeg directly you could use image2mpeg. I can't remember the link, try looking on google for it.

Either that our you could just create a blank 5 second WAV file using sound recorder, then mux this with your still image in TMPGEnc.

Or make it a 5 second description of the photo
