More questions about the Movie-JPEG format, please:
- Why was it decided to invent a format rather than use the existing Motion-JPEG standard (which I didn't know about until Bolot sent me these URLs):
http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/research/cmt/versions/4.0/doc/cmtmjpeg/MJPEG_ chunkfile.html http://neptune.netcomp.monash.edu.au/cpe3013/MPEG/Reading/MJPEG/step1.htm
The Motion-JPEG format sounds like essentially the same thing as the movie-JPEG format, but I could be missing some of the subtleties.
- Why is the soundtrack audio format Sun mulaw rather than something more common like AIFF or WAV?
- It looks like it's possible to do multiple soundtracks (though the MPEG-to-Movie-JPEG example only create a single monophonic soundtrack). How does that work? Are they mixed during playback, or is there a way to choose between soundtracks during playback?
I'm eager to get the plugin/VM to try it, particular on BUILDING some movies!
