SYNOPSIS

ppm2raw [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

ppm2raw converts a PPM to a Raw DV stream.

OPTIONS

-n
NTSC output required.
-a
Maintain aspect ratio when scaling images.
-s
Scale images to the full frame size, regardless of aspect ratio
-w
Wide screen output (default: off).

EXAMPLES

ppm2raw needs a PPM input provided on stdin. Fortunately, many tools generate PPM on stdout.

For example, to re-encode any ffmpeg compatible file or stream format to a PAL Raw DV stream which rescales the images according to the aspect ratio of the input using the following command:

ffmpeg -i 'some-file' -f ppmpipe - |

ppm2raw -a > file.dv

For NTSC, you would add -n to the ppm2raw command.
