Gource on Windows

Question

We're having problems on windows creating a video file from gource (gource). We can run gource and watch the video live but don't seem to be able to get any useful physical output.

Answer 1

gource -1024x768 --stop-position 1.0 --highlight-all-users --hide-filenames --seconds-per-day 5 --output-framerate 60 --output-ppm-stream output.ppm

ffmpeg -y -r 60 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm -i output.ppm  -vcodec wmv1 -r 60 -sameq out.wmv

The key was the image2pipe format which seems to extract all the frames from the ppm rather than treating it as an individual image.
