I'm hoping that we can find a way to export a Squeak JPEG movies in a form that can be imported into a high-end video program and turned into a movie in MPEG, Quicktime, or other popular digital video formats for those who desire to publish their movies outside the Squeak community. (I believe that Adobe Premier, for example, can create a movie from a folder full of individual frames, and it would be easy to export all the frames of a JPEG movie.)
I use QuickTime Pro to do this regularly. For example, I recently had a movie of my screen to demonstrate CoWeb (captured via Timbuktu), but it was my whole 1152x780 screen, and I only wanted the upper left corner. iMovie can't crop frames. I understand that FinalCut Pro can, but I don't have that. I used QuickTime Pro to output the frames as a series of PNGs, then GraphicConverter to batch crop the images, then QuickTime Pro to suck them back into QuickTime movie. Worked great!
