<div dir="ltr">Dear QE users,<div><br></div><div>I am trying to make a .avi movie of my NEB calculation. I have installed Xcrysden and mencoder on my computer. For making the movie, I open the AXSF file in Xcrysden, set delay between slides as 2000 m sec and then click on Start Recording Animated-Gif/Mpeg followed by an immediate click on 'play forward button'. When the transition from Slide 1 to Slide 7 is complete( I have 7 images in my NEB), I stop the recording and then save the movie in .avi format. On doing so, I get the following message. </div>
<div><br></div><div>/usr/bin/mencoder mf:// -mf fps=10.0 -o /home/mitul/Desktop/movie.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4</div><div><br></div><div>I save and close the movie and in doing so, I encounter the following error.</div>
