-A short decription on how to create movies from OMERO.
-
-Creating a movie from OMERO
----------------------------
-
-OMERO provides a script to make Mpeg or Quicktime movies from any image
-in the server. These movies are created by a script called makemovie.py,
-this script has a number of options: these include: selecting a range of
-Z,T planes, the channels to display. The movie can also show information
-overlayed over the image: z-section, scale bar and timing.
-
-The resulting movie will then be uploaded to the server by the script
-and become a file attachment to the source image.
-
-Viewing the movie
------------------
-
-The make movie script allows you to save the movie in two different
-formats, a DivX-encoded AVI and QuickTime movie. To view the AVI you may
-need to install a DivX codec from `DivX `_. It
-should be noted that the DivX AVI is normally 1/3 to 1/10 the size of
-the QuickTime movie.
-
-Installing the make movie script
---------------------------------
-
-The make movie script currently uses the `mencoder `_ utility to
-encode the movies, this command should be in the path of the
-computer (icegrid node) running the script.
-
-We have :snapshot:`Mac OSX installs for mencoder `
-which were originally provided
-`here `__.
-Unzip and put the mencoder in the PATH available to the server, e.g.
-:file:`/usr/local/bin/`. You may need to restart the server for this to take
-effect.
-
-There are also macports, rpms and debs for mencoder.
-
-Make movie also uses Pillow_ and `numpy `_.
-
-Make movie command arguments
-----------------------------
-
-A detailed list of the commands accepted by the script are:
-
-- imageId: This id of the image to create the movie from
-- output: The name of the output file, sans the extension
-- zStart: The starting z-section to create the movie from
-- zEnd: The final z-section
-- tStart: The starting timepoint to create the movie
-- tEnd: The final timepoint.
-- channels: The list of channels to use in the movie (index, from 0)
-- splitView: Should we show the split view in the movie (not available yet)
-- showTime: Show the average time of the aquisition of the channels in the frame.
-- showPlaneInfo: Show the time and z-section of the current frame.
-- fps: The number of frames per second of the movie
-- scalebar: The scalebar size in microns, if <=0 will not show scale bar.
-- format: The format of the movie to be created currently supports 'video/mpeg', 'video/quicktime'
-- overlayColour: The colour of the overlays, scalebar, time, as int(RGB)
-- fileAnnotation: The fileAnnotation id of the uploaded movie. (return value from script)
