Nice frame Frank, any chance of posting the animation or is it too big?
Really itching to play with Dribble lately but can't find the time...:( |

That looks pretty fantastic. I've said before that RenderMan renderers can do really nice motion blur, and this is good proof.
It's actually another case where there's a lot of low-level flexibility, but exposing it would require a lot of work for probably only a few people using it. Still, now that there's RIB output (and this will be expanded later) anyone who wants to do some background reading can experiment. |

I agree, that image looks great. I'd like to see an animated version of that.:) |

Thanks!
I have an uncompressed AVI but no software here at the office to convert to WMA/MPG, etc. Do you guys know of some free converter? I'd be happy to upload this. |

I've definitely heard of VirtuaDub, but didn't know it could write to WMA or MPEG. (?) Thought it was a basic AVI tool.
I could always compress to DivX AVI, but WMA and MPG (also MOV) seem to be viewable by more people.
Thanks, guys. I'll look into Super and VirtuaDub more... |

Check this virtual dub mod for mpeg, not sure about wmv.

edit: sorry, that only reads mpg, though it might be interesting anyway |

Here's an online tool that will convert and recompress:
http://www.media-convert.com/
Or if you don't mind a command line converter, you cold try ffmpeg. Here's a link to how to use it and ffmpeg itself. Really easy and nice results.

and the documentation:
http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg-doc.html#SEC5
It will convert just about anything. |
