Had a look, and in the process came accross a set of utilities that
allows you to do it all in one swoop, as where Berkeley's approach takes
YUV files which I would need to convert the jpg's to.

The utilities are called  Netpbm and comes with a whole bunch of
utilities, one of which is ppmtompeg.

Thanks for the advice


Cheers
