I usually use my FFMPEG-based plugin which I told the list about more than
a year ago ;-) It is available via the update site

        http://fiji.sc/~schindelin/ffmpeg-plugins/

They add File>Import>Movie (FFMPEG)... and File>Save As>Movie (FFMPEG)...

Ciao,

I actually found the original announcement:

        https://groups.google.com/d/msg/fiji-devel/fJICJ55sc-E/iULpVm-yaRQJ

Note that the server's name is "fiji.sc" now (even if "pacific.mpi-cbg.de"
still works as an alias).

Please note also that even if I Mavenized the project in the meantime:

        https://github.com/fiji/fiji/tree/master/native/FFMPEG_IO

I did not have enough time to work on it. There are a lot of things that
could be improved:

- the underlying FFMPEG library should be upgraded (preferably to the much
  nicer maintained LibAV library), which unfortunately involves quite a
  bit of work on http://fiji.sc/GenerateFFMPEGClasses.java, but the JUnit
  testing I provided should help,

- there is a lot of room for improvement with the virtual stack import, in
  particular with the calculation of the number of frames,

- there is virtually no support to let the user specify compression
  options, this is a huge undertaking.

However, it is my hope that by making this project easy to import into,
and to develop and test it in, Eclipse or other IDEs, it is now much
easier to contribute to the project.

Getting started with developing it is as easy as cloning
git://github.com/fiji/fiji and File>Import>Maven>Existing Maven Project...
on the native/FFMPEG_IO/ subdirectory of the Fiji clone.

Ciao,
Dscho
