Hi. I've found the avifile package to be a really great piece of work.
Thanks to all who contributed!
In my course of playing with it, I wrote a few little utility programs
that I thought others might find useful. Perhaps you might want to
include them in the "samples" area. In any event, I wanted to contribute
this stuff, just in case anyone else might find it useful.
The source can be found at
http://home.earthlink.net/~tpavel/avitools-0.1.tar.gz
Attached is a README file. I setup the source to build with
automake/libtool. Hopefully, this will be easy enough to figure
out. I have only tested this on FreeBSD against avifile-0.53.5.

AVI tools
The Avifile package (http://divx.euro.ru/) provides a library of
primitives for reading/parsing .AVI (Windows Media Player) video
files. There are a few obvious things (like displaying file info and
concatenating files) that I wanted to do and which are pretty easy to
do using this library. Hence this package...
There are currently 3 programs:
avitype - For a set of .avi files, print a little display for each
with the video/audio codecs, frame size, frame rate, etc.
This display is not currently very clean or well organized.
Somebody could enhance this quite a bit.
avicat - Take a set of .avi files and combine them into one single
.avi file. Specify output with a -o option or else
"out.avi". Assumes inputs are same format, otherwise bad
things might happen...
avimake - Take a set of .jpg images and turn them into a div3 movie.
Output specified with -o, frame rate with -r.
Hope this is useful to other folks. Do with this code whatever you
wish (i.e. public domain).
