R.  Thanks for the reality check.  I've spent some time with the 
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-quicktime-7.html#menc-feat-quicktime-7-example
and avi creating stuff.  If I run:
$ mencoder mf://*.png -mf w=320:h=240:fps=1:type=png -ovc copy 
-audioOpen_Studios_theme.ogg -oac copy -o done1.avi
I seem to get a suitable avi file for playback in Mplayer.  I then found:
mencoder done1.avi -o VCD.mpg -ofps 25 -vf scale=352:288,harddup -of 
lavf -lavfopts 
format=mpg:i_certify_that_my_video_stream_does_not_use_b_frames -oac 
lavc -lavcopts acodec=mp2:abitrate=224 -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=mpeg1video:vrc_buf_size=327:keyint=15:vrc_maxrate=1152:vbitrate=1152:vmax_b_frames=0
This takes avi file and converts to VCD.mpg

But, my goal is to convert to .mov file, and edit it with Cinelerra.  
Any suggestions where to look to do that?
Thanks, Tom
