Hm, I might try that, although I usually stick to packaged software. Maybe you could patch a bit imagemagick to suggest these workarounds instead of only displaying the raw message? > However, it's probably more easy to just use ffmpeg to do the job. > Number your source images like img1.jpg, img2.jpg and use ffmpeg -i > img%d.jpg foobar.mpg to do the conversion.

I've moved to trying ffmpeg after reporting this bug, indeed. Got some errors with that one too, but I'll probably try again with a trick like yours, thanks. Cheers, -- Cyril BRulebois
