Mjpeg tools is a suite of programs which support
video capture, basic editing, playback, and
compression to MPEG-1/2 of MJPEG video. The
capture software allows MJPEG video streams in
AVI, Quicktime, and movtar format to be produced
using the Iomega Buz, Miro DC10+, Matrox Marvel,
and similar hardware. The editing and playback
tools are hardware independent, with support for
hardware accelerated playback if present. The MPEG
compression tools are based on MPEG Software
Simulation Group's reference encoder with
enhancements to provide far faster compression and
significant quality improvements.
