Hi
I want to read avi files and extract the individual frames which I
want to process. Can I read avi into idl or does anyone have a good
link to covert avi files to bitmaps?
Thanks
Russ

Hi Russ,
The link to the workbench directory on my site only works from
IDL7.0. I am in the process of updating my Kilvarock web site and
will have the new dll/dlm when it is up. In the meantime you can use
the "old" one at http://www.kilvarock.com/freesoftware/dlms/avi63plus.htm
It doesn't have as much error handling as the new one but still works
fine.
Thanks,

Or, go talk with Dr Michael Theusner at www.avistack.de, who has
written as world class astronomical avi stacking
program in IDL, known as AviStack.
Cheers,
Andrew

In IDL, Ronn's DLM as others have mentioned. Outside IDL, Imagen and
Videomach from Gromada
http://www.gromada.com/
Imagen is a player that can do frame dumps and is free. Videomach is
an editor and costs US$25. They are both very good.
These are all available only in Windows. This is one of my main
reasons for sticking with Windows.
