The MJPEG tools (NewsForge)

[Posted November 5, 2004 by ris]

NewsForge uses MJPEG tools for video processing. "The original intent of the MJPEG Tools was to provide a package which would enable Linux users to capture and play back video through a PCI card based around the Zoran ZR36067 MJPEG chip. Wrapped in the standard Audio/Video Interleaved (AVI) container format, MJPEG -- properly known as Motion JPEG -- is essentially a sequence of JPEG still images which, when played back fast enough, show as a movie."
