Photostory, a free Microsoft program can make a video out of any pictures you have

For stop motion / still image sequencing one of the better apps for this kind of thing is Picture To Exe. You can build a sequence of images and save as video (various format options which you'll see).

Worth well purchasing - helpful forum and committed developer (Igor). Compared to Photodex ProShow Producer (similar electronic slide show / presentation software) this is a bargain and much more compact and efficient to use. I've also used with it Scribus to make professional presentations with great success.

Note the new version 5.00 is still a beta but has a number of new features including zoom / pan etc. Best on a recent model computer with good graphics. Read more in the forum:

The other option is to use IrfanView to make a slide show and build a stand alone exe. The hot key is [ W ] to get started. Adjust Slide Advancement to Automatic, about 0.150 secs is good for stop motion.

FreshView is a freeware program for image browsing/cataloging that does much more, including converting a folder (or folders) full of images.

RE: V/Dub... Had some jpegs not work, but not the error posted -- Generally open the sequentially named images using the file open dialog, then select things like the codec. Is it possible you already had codec selected, & that problem was with the codec not accepting anything not YUV?

Hirudin:
AVISynth will let you use an image sequence as a video. Use the ImageSource filter.

You should then be able to open the "video" in pretty much any video program (even a media player) and export as whatever that program supports. You can even apply other filters to the video if you want...
