I have a set of ~300 jpeg images that I wish to combine into a file named mymovie.mpeg.

convert *.jpg mymovie.mpeg
and
convert -adjoin *.jpg mymovie
(both commands I've seen as examples)

both produce the same result:

Encoding frame 0....
Encoding frame 1....
Encoding frame 2....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 3....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 4....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 5....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 6....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 7....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 8....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 9....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 10....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 11....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 12....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 13....
vbv_delay overflow!
Encoding frame 14....
vbv_delay overflow!
vbv_delay overflow: 68784


I've reviewed the forums and have found that 3 other people have had similar problems (search for vbv) but none received responses. Ideas???

Additionally, when I get these errors, creating an mpeg from say 24 images takes like 3 minutes or more. This is horribly slow compared to mencoder and/or FFMpeg in my experience. Is this due to the previous error or is conversion time always this slow?

I'm looking to access these features via API in C++ and do this in real time so I need better conversion speeds.
