[--Paulo 11:07, 13 July 2010 (CDT)] Launchpad build farm is kind of slow as I write, check if you architecture is availble, if not, just wait a little.

Other platforms

You can download the latest source code at Elphel's SVN hosted at sourceforge.net. Check the README file for build information. movie2dng uses scons and is know to build on Linux (Ubuntu), Mac OS X and Windows using Mingw32).

 svn co http://elphel.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/elphel/tools/Movie2DNG

Usage

movie2dng is a command line program, the usage is the follow:

 movie2dng --help
 movie2dng [options] FILENAME FRAME
 
 This program will convert the FILENAME JP4 movie to individual frames named
 FRAME-NNNNNN.dng, where NNNNNN will be replaced by the frame number starting
 at 1. Note that there is no need to specify the .dng extension on the frame
 name, it will be added automatically. If you want to save frames on a different
 directory, use something like DIRECTORY/FRAME, for example.
 
 [options]
 	  -v, --version display program version information.
 	  -h, --help    show this help message.

Developers

I'm going to use Launchpad as bug tracker for this project, please feel free to add bugs there, code is maintained both on Launchpad and SVN (Launchpad is a mirror a sf.net SVN).
