[MEncoder-users] How can I decode a movie->image at a specified rate ?!

[Pierre PARENT]

Hi everybody,

I would like to know if there is a way to obtain PPM images from a video in stdout at the video frame rate.
The goal is to show a video using amsn(or similar) by simulating a video device (/dev/video*) like it was a webcam.

I have tried that :
-> "mencoder -really-quiet my_movie.wmv -nosound -ovc raw -vf format=rgb24 -of rawvideo -o /dev/stdout"
Then, I pipe the output using "dd" to bufferize and finally send the stream to the dummy V4L device I just have implemented.

BUT it decodes the video at the maximum speed. Is there a way to decode the video at 25fps with mencoder or ffmpeg ??

 Thanks,
  Pierre.

ps : sorry for my poor english .. If you have not understood what I'm trying to do, just say it and I will explain better ;-)
