There are several things that trip the unwary.
This is the command that worked for me:
$ mencoder mf://out-*jpg -mf w=300:h=400:fps=2:type=jpg -ovc lavc
-lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:mbd=2:trell copy -oac copy -o f.avi
And before this I ensured that all pictures are of the same aspect
ratio. Obviously my pictures were of various aspect ratios.
You have to use ImageMagick like this:
$ convert i.jpg -resize !300x400 out-i.jpg
Only then the resizing will be done without minding about the aspect ratio.
You can create a video only using images of the same width and height.
Use the identify(1) command of ImageMagick
for ensuring this:
$ identify out-*
out-MadhubanBKWSUOmShantiBawan.jpg JPEG 300x400 300x400+0+0 8-bit
DirectClass 39.1kb
out-Navnath1.jpg[1] JPEG 300x400 300x400+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 46kb
out-Potala.jpg[2] JPEG 300x400 300x400+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 57kb
Do you see that they all are 300x400
Of course I wrote a script like this from the command line itself.
for i in *jpg
do
convert $i -resize !300x400 out-$i
done
