How about using GStreamer as an abstraction layer? It can use native backends, such as QuickTime and DirectShow.

Something that has been on my "todo" list for a long time is to use
Quicktime as a back end on at least OS X to create movies. I have just never had the time to start down that path. This could also be used on
Windows if needed, but using the native windows media is probably
better. At least that way those on OS X can have their choice of legal
codecs to use. Just not sure what to do on the Linux side of things.


ffmpeg please.

I agree that it would be nice to add ogg/theora. I am guessing ffmpeg
supports it. Would you mind adding a feature request in
http://paraview.org/Bug.

Thanks,

Thanks Berk and David for the prompt answer.

Licensing certainly is a good reason. But then, mjpeg produces much
larger
movies. Every frame is a key-frame. How about offering a choice between
mjpeg and ogg/theora in the export dialog?

Dang, I searched the archives, but nothing useful showed up... must have
used the wrong keywords!

Hi all

is there a specific reason why the movie encoding was changed from
MPEG4
to
MJPEG?
