Usage: ${0##*/} [OPTIONS] ...
options:
  -d | -dir <dir>     directory containing png images (default local dir)
  -f | -fps <fps>     frames per second (default = 10)
  -h | -help          help
  -i | -image <name>  name of image sequence (default = image)
  -o | -out <name>    name of output video file (default = video)
  -w | -webm          WebM output video file format

Creates a video file from a sequence of PNG images
- A sequence named "image" will expect files image.0000.png, image.0001.png, etc
- The default output video compression format is MPEG-4, with WebM as an option
- The default file name, using MPEG-4 compression, is video.mp4
- By default the video codec is high resolution

Requires avconv or mencoder for MPEG-4 output, avconv for WebM output
