JPGAvi creates a video, animation, (AVI) file from a series, or individual, bitmap files, also a sound file can be attached to the video.. These can be viewed as a video file or used to insert still frames into a video sequence. One of JPGAvi's main uses is to convert still pictures into an AVI file, so they can be used when editing a video sequence. A slide show option is also built in. The video file can contains the names of each bitmap, so if a web cam is used to take photographs every few seconds, it becomes very easy to find a frame. The shareware version writes the text "JPGAvi Shareware Version" to each frame, there is a 30 day time limit to it's usage also.
