SYNOPSIS

jpeg2yuv [-b num] [-f num] [-I num] [-A ratio] [-L num] [-n num] [-l num] [-j filename]

DESCRIPTION

jpeg2yuv decompresses a sequence of JPEG files and pipes the image data to stdout as a YUV4MPEG2 stream. Any JPEG format supported by libjpeg can be read. stdout will be filled with the YUV4MPEG2 movie data stream, so be prepared to pipe it on to mpeg2enc or to write it into a file.

OPTIONS

jpeg2yuv accepts the following options:

-b num

Frame offset: skip output of the first 'num' frames. (default: 0)

-f num

Set the frame rate of stream accepts the same numbers. No default, this option has to be specified.

-A ratio

Sample aspect ratio. Default is square pixels (1:1)

-I num

interlacing mode: p = none / progressive
t = top field first
b = bottom field first
No default, this option has to be specified.

-L num

0 = non-interlaced (two successive fields per JPEG file)
1 = interlaced fields

-l num

Specifies the number of loops (default: 0 loops )
When this option is not used the given range of images is only processed once. If you use this option with num of -1 jpeg2yuv will loop forever writing the image to stdout. When you use n > 0 it will loop n-times till it finishes.

-n num

Specifies the number of frames to process. (default: all = -1)

-j {1}%{2}d{3}

Read JPEG frames with the name components as follows:
 {1} JPEG filename prefix (e g: picture_ )
 {2} Counting placeholder (like in C, printf, eg 06 ))
 {3} File extension. Something like this: .jpg A correct description of the files could look like this: picture_%06d.jpg

If this option is omited, the filenames are read from stdin. For example:
 $ls *jpg | jpeg2yuv -f 25 -I p > result.yuv

-R 1 or 0

rescale YUV color values from 0-255 to 16-235 (default: 1)

-v num

Verbosity level (0, 1 or 2)
