If you really want to do this with idl's mpeg object, then try this:
mympeg=OBJ_NEW('IDLgrMPEG', QUALITY=100, DIMENSIONS=[800,600])
FOR x=0, (frames-1) DO mympeg->PUT, mat_save[*,*,x]
mympeg->SAVE, FILENAME='Stars_size'+StrTrim(String(size),1)+'.mpg'
OBJ_DESTROY,mympeg
BUT!!!! for 1000 frames not only will the mpeg take FOREVER to save
and close (even with a really really beefed up computer), the quality
will SUCK, no way around it. u are also limited by your ram. search
the newsgroup for idl2avi. its the best. download the dll and dlm
for it and then run this code:
aviParams=AVI_OPENW('Stars_size'+StrTrim(String(size),1)+'.a vi',
24L, 800L, 600L, FRAMERATE=30, OPTIONS=1)
;the mpegs i have made with the mpeg4 codec have been excelent
FOR x=0, (frames-1) DO
status=AVI_PUT(aviParams,x,(mat_save[*,*,x]))
status=AVI_CLOSEW(aviParams)
it will be much faster and EXTREMELY better quality. and instead of
storing the image in your ram, it stores it on your hard drive so it
doesnt take any time to save it. it also allows for mpeg4 creation
amoung many other codecs!
good luck
