NAME¶

image2raw - Convert a collection of images to a Raw DV stream

SYNOPSIS¶

image2raw [ options ] file ...

DESCRIPTION¶

image2raw converts files to a Raw DV stream. Most file formats are supported and compatability is governed by gdkpixbuf.

OPTIONS¶

-n

NTSC output required (this must come before any files)

-ppm

Do not encode to Raw DV - output a PPM stream on stdout instead.

-s WxH

Scale the PPM output to the specified width and height.

-a

Maintain aspect ratio on images following.

-f

Scale following images to the full frame size, regardless of aspect ratio

-k

Keep the image unscaled - centre and crop output as necessary (default).

-w

Wide screen output (default: off).

-r count

Repeat the following images count times (must be an integer >= 1).

-b colour

Use the colour triple for backgrounds - default is 000000. Format must be a hex string representing red, green, blue. For example, ffffff would be white.

-A wav

Use the wav to dub the output. The wav file must contain stereo, 16 bit samples at a frequency of 32khz, 44.1khz or 48khz.

-2

Two pass encoding (default: off).

HELP OPTIONS¶

--help

Show help message.

EXAMPLES¶

To encode a sequence of jpegs as PAL Raw DV while maintaining the aspect ratio of the images, use:

image2raw -a *.jpeg > file.dv

To do the same thing with NTSC, use:

image2raw -n -a *.jpeg > file.dv
