ImageJ Plugins

Plugin to create Quicktime movie

Quicktime movie creation plugin

Description

Basically, a customized version of Save as Movie

Therefore, javacv.jar, javacpp.jar, ffmpeg.jar, ffmpeg-macosx-x86_64.jar, opencv.jar, opencv-macosx-86_64.jar is required.

Codec limits h.264 and Mpeg4, containers to .mov

Automatic calculation of Bitrate from image size etc. * Calculate higher value than original

When using h.264, there is a bug that may come from an external jar. -> almost eliminated by setting Codec to Mpeg4

2015.3.27

When writing a timestamp or scale, expanding the image will disturb the image in H.264.

-> There is no problem if this is also MPEG4. In addition, if bitrate is reduced, it may be resolved
