Created attachment 17508 [details] The ebuild file of this program.
Created attachment 44653 [details] animmaker-0.4.3.2.ebuild Seems to work well, however there is a new version out and Gentoo custom CFLAGS are introduced now. kai
Hmm, this is the RESOLVE I hate to use the most but.. even the homepage lists that MPlayer's mencoder can use the same thing (if not better) and most of it recommends using mencoder externally to get the desired results. As far as size and what not, if you really wanted this in MPlayer, you could probably USE="-* tag encode" and get about the same result.
MEncoder however can not create AVI files from an undetermined number of TGA files. The homepage shows an example "cat *.tga | animmaker", but the "cat" could be substituted with user's own program which creates a continuous stream with no end. That's not possible with MEncoder. MEncoder needs to know beforehand exactly how many frames there are.
