OK, then I think we have the capability now of creating Jmol video movies.
The addition to Jmol, to be in 11.7, not 11.6, is;

write frames {xxx} "movie0000.jpg"

{xxx} is some atom expression, such as {*} (all frames) or {1.0} (all models
in the first file) or {1.1,1.3,1.5} (three specific frames). Files will be
created by replacing "0000" with "0001" "0002" etc. as necessary, creating a
set of image files (JPEG in this case).

What you do with those files is up to you. I loaded them into VideoMach just
to see if it could handle them, which it did, apparently. I purposely set
the frame rate very high. But there are plenty of utilities out there that
can do this. Maybe someone with more experience can fill us in on a few of
the options.
