At the moment, generate the videos separately. So use the Movie Generator
script, but you turn off delete files. Then run ffmpeg separately.
Here is what I use: ffmpeg -framerate 30 -i filename.%05d.ppm -c:v libx264
-profile:v baseline -level 3.0 -pix_fmt yuv420p filename.mp4
I have submitted an updated Movie Generator script that will generate an
MP4 with good compatibility. Hopefully that will make it into the upcoming
release.
Catch ya,
