MPEG_SAVE

Syntax | Arguments | Keywords | Examples | Version History

The MPEG_SAVE procedure encodes and saves an open MPEG sequence.

This routine is written in the IDL language. Its source code can be found in the file mpeg_save.pro in the lib subdirectory of the IDL distribution.

Note
MPEG support in IDL requires a special license. For more information, contact your ITT Visual Information Solutions sales representative or technical support.

Note
The IDLffMJPEG2000 object creates and reads Motion JPEG2000 (MJ2) files, and provides more functionality than the MPEG_* routines. Animations can consist of monochrome, RGB or multi-component frames that display individual components, tiles or regions. See Overview of Motion JPEG2000 (Using IDL) for more information.
