For this purpose I've been using mencoder (http://www.mplayerhq.hu) which is open source and gives access to a wide range of codecs (mpeg-1, mpeg-2, mpeg-4 (divx), realmedia, mov, avi, asf, flash etc). Here is the batch file I used to encode a video in two-pass divx encoding (the frames were in the same folder as the batch (.bat) file, and were called vid001.png, vid002.png, ...). The output video had a very nice quality and a decent size.
c:\mplayer\mencoder mf://*.png -mf w=960:h=720:fps=15:type=png -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vpass=1 -oac copy -o output.avi del output3.avi c:\mplayer\mencoder mf://*.png -mf w=960:h=720:fps=15:type=png -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vpass=2 -oac copy -o output.avi However this has been done with version 1.0pre6 (relased on the December 23, 2004), and version 1.0pre8 has been released recently (June 11, 2006) so some parameters might have been added/modified. Hope this helps!
