Carsten Siegner (ANF) First working beta of Powerkonverter
Today I have published a working version of my program called "Powerkonverter". Currently it supports all important basic functions of ffmpeg and additionally the "Motion Estimation" preference. Videos can be splitted or changed. Besides this all formats are supported which has been newly added.

But in this version pictures series will not be recognized. This will be the next step.

Installation:

Unpack the archive, copy the corresponding libs to your Workbench/libs directory. For starting the program you need to be installed the PNG datatype. ffmpeg must be in the system path (c:, s: or something like that). I have copied ffmpeg to c:.

I have programmed a PNG-GUI because then the program itself has only the half size compared with an IFF version. Additionally PNG datatypes are also available in PPC versions which accelerates the program.

Shortcuts:
ESC: Quitting the program
Return: Starting ffmpeg
Control + C: Aborting ffmpeg
Space: Stopping the console output of ffmpeg
Backspace: Continuing console output of ffmpeg

I have not implemented a seperate button for starting ffmpeg because it is simply unpractical. You can confirm the shortcuts on each place in the GUI like e.g. the Return key. If you want to test a newly preferenced figure only push the Return key for starting ffmpeg with the new figure.

If you want to program yourself new figures in the cycle buttons it is quite simple. The program directory contains several text files ".txt". These ones you can rewrite up to a certain level. The only thing which can be not changed is the amount of the entries. In the same way it works with the format lister. You can write your own formats if they are not there yet.

Later I will also add the automatic picture identification and the VideoCD option.
