VideoMerge3D Files

November 16, 2011 - added use of mpeg4 ( ffmpeg encoder ) as default
		  - x264 seems broken now - edit command yourself with -norun
		  - now prints out gstreamer command for you to edit manually 
		  - soundL or -soundR options to only use audio from one source (but soundLR is default).
March 21, 2011  - audio was reversed.  Fixed! LCamera = left audio, RCamera = right audio


Install:
copy to your /usr/bin ( or /usr/local/bin ) directory or just run locally via ./videomerge3d

Use:
run ./videomerge3d without arguments to see these instructions for use:


videomerge3d { [-option] [leftfile rightfile ] [output.avi] }
Files will be joined as a single left right video file.
You must have GStreamer plugins to support options below.
NOTE: default output is 1280x720. Change via options (e.g. -640 or -1080p ).
Warning:h264 is (was) broken - use mpeg4 (default) instead
 
  Options:
-play   don't save, just play. If one file supplied this is implied.
-play   with two files supplied will join them before playing.
-norun  will produce the gstreamer commandline for you to (modify and) run seperately
-v      verbose
