</div>If you use Linux or Mac OS X, bash is usually installed on your system.<br>
It is a command line interface and can be used for scripting.<br>
(<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash_%28Unix_shell%29" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash_%28Unix_shell%29</a>)<br>
<br>
This particular script is nothing fancy, and I have made it mostly to<br>
remind the parameters for mencoder.<br>

</div>I assume JPEG-Photo is MJPEG: The video file gets so large, because you<br>
store a JPEG for each frame instead of full image for keyframes only and<br>
then changes for subsequent frames as do other video codecs (rough<br>
explanation). [pix_film] can then read each frame as a JPEG and does not<br>
need to find the last keyframe and apply the changes to it, so playback<br>
should be possible with lower CPU usage.<br>
<br>
Please tell us some information about your system, i.e. CPU, graphic<br>
card, operating system etc., maybe someone with a similar setup can<br>
respond with further advice for optimisation.<br>
