User Reviews

  • Exactly what I needed, easy and simple to use. Thank you so much!
  • As others have said here, there seems to be a limit of images that can create a video. It worked fine with less than a thousand images. At 24 fps that's only 42 seconds. For a 4 minute video that's 5760 images, so I'd have to run this in 6 segments. Otherwise I got scrambled video like another poster stated, 4 overlapping pieces of the image scrambled in different parts of the frame. A better choice is Photoshop, where I can import 6000+ images as an image sequence and save as an mp4 file. Another problem with Makeavi is that some of the avi files could be imported to Premiere Pro, some couldn't. So I'd have to use ffmpeg to make an mp4 out of the avi file, and be able to retain a 30,000 kbps quality. Photoshop saved my 6,000 16 bit tiff files as an mp4 at 32,000 kbps.
  • Nothing is faster or more solid for turning an image sequence into a video. Great for time lapse/animation. Yes it has its quirks but you'll get used to them. Like one user said, no codecs are included and the built in windows codecs are crappy but you can just install ffmpeg or choose "full frames/uncompressed" as an option then open the file in your favorite video converter. Also, I've noticed it is very picky about filenames being numbered sequentially with no numbers skipped. I use "Advanced Renamer" to handle that minor problem. Great job, thank you!.
  • Easy and simple. Does what it says. Nothing more nothing less.
  • I was looking for an alternative to GoPro Studio for stitching together photos because their format, CFHD, is not well supported by players other than QuickTime. MakeAVI can crop but not scale. Fine if you just want the middle of the shot but not good for reducing the file size. There are no codecs with this software so I ended up trying some Microsoft / Intel ones with pretty crappy results. You can remove a single file from the set but not groups. I'm going to delete this and keep looking.
