After playing with different settings, searching for answers on the net I was not able to find combination of parameters that would give me good enough quality. First example from mencoder documentation did not help. More detailed example of encoding with libavcodec did not help either.mencoder "mf://*.jpg" -mf fps=10 -o test.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4v2:vbitrate=800
ffmpeg -r 10 -b 1800 -i %d.jpg test.aviResults seem to be even worse than from previous attempt.
