How to create time-lapse movies from JPEG stills: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 23:16, 30 March 2014

Trying to combine many .jpg-files into one movie, using my Mac with Mac OS X 10.8 Snow Leopard.

Download and install ffmpeg either via homebrew, compiling or just downloading binary from: http://ffmpegmac.net
This…
~/bin/ffmpeg -t 20 -f image2 -r 1 -loop 1 -i "%14d.jpg" -r 30 "out.mov"^[1]
…will create a movie with 1fps, TBD

↑ Since the pictures taken are named like this: 2014-03-30_10-17-02.jpg, you will have to rename them, for example with a little script or Better Finder Rename
