Souce Code/Free Library to convert series of bitmaps into avi?

[GreenGhost]

Currently, I have a program that exports a series of numbered bmp's. I wonder if there's a public domain library or source code to output directly as avi (must workd under Windows). I'm not familiar with DirectX functionality. Is there something that would help me there?

Thanks for any help

i've wondered that as well. i guess you could always create an animated gif, if that is acceptable instead.

I believe mencoder (from mplayer) will do this, not 100% sure though. I've used mplayer under cygwin before so mencoder will probably work too.

A command-line program will also help, since I could simply call it from my program after the images are created. The user would not even notice. Must be free/freely distributed, though.

mplayer and mencoder are command-line.

Must be native Windows. No other requirement in the users computer. I couldn't find a port of mencoder for Win32... I'm looking at Windows Media 9.0 stuff now.
