- We are developing some image generation hardware and need to research some
- quality issues. Specifically, the quality of motion when the images are
- generated in real time. I know that anti-aliasing of moving images requires
- some care.
-
- So, given that our hardware simulator (VHDL) can't generate images in
- anything like real time, it is necessary to assemble a series of still
- frames in to a movie.
-
- Can anyone suggest some software that does this? For platforms, we have
- PC's, Mac's, Indigo's, SparcStations, etc. On the PC (the platform I know),
- we have MPEG and DL movie players.
-
- My basic notion of the software in question has it taking a series of TIF
- files and compressing/formatting them into an MPEG movie.
-
- Help would be appreciated...thanks in advance.
