You should check out libquicktime and transcode to make quicktime movies.
June 19, 20001
I've often needed to make quicktime movies to send to clients, friends, etc.
and never had a way to do it on linux. On my sgi i used to love my dmconvert,
and pined for it at these times.
Here is the source code for a solution that I hacked together that seems
to work.It uses libquicktime, I've included a .a file of that so you don't
have to deal with making it. It makes quicktime movies from sequences of ppm
files, like foo.0001.ppm, etc. ppm's are easy to make with
/usr/X11R6/bin/convert.
