For more than a decade, I have used png2swf to assemble static images into flash animations that I can add to web pages and presentations. An example here:

My perhaps-erroneous understanding is that HTML5 isn't a single video standard, but a container for many incompatible video formats, some proprietary. I don't care about Hollywood quality - I want archival endurance. What open-source browser-compatible video format (HTML5 or other) should I replace Flash with? What open source tools can create that from a sequence of PNG images, or translate from old flash animations? Keith P.S.: I use PNG because many tools produce it and modify it. For example, I produce PNG graphs with gnuplot, then scribble on them with the gd graphics library, as the example shows. P.P.S. Apropos of not much, that particular graph is obsolete; the new launchloop 2.0 design is 98%+ energy efficient, the rotor temperature will stay below 400 K. New graphs and animations when I choose a new format. -- Keith Lofstrom kei...@keithl.com
