I generated a stream of images and placed them into a ppm container using this command

convert 1.jpg 4.jpg 10.jpg -delay 20 -morph 4 test.ppm

giving me a result something like this

identify test.ppm

Code: Select all

identify test.ppm

Now I'd like to feed this ppm to an encoder and create an video slideshow
I can't see the info how long should each slide display for in the ppm also can someone recommend a tool that can handle a ppm as an input
I'm not sure if I'm doing this right.
