This was one of the only ways to get video working easily 20 years ago. I remember piping ppm files into the Berkeley MPEG_ENCODE [1] and getting out a poorly encoded but animated raytracer output.

- majewsky 9y agoI did the same for my diploma thesis, where I simulated quantum waveforms on a small compute cluster. Each run would consist of about 30,000 separate simulations with initial conditions, and while they usually only output a few statistics each, there was a debugging switch which dumped the waveform as a PPM after every timestep, so that I could merge them all into a video and assess the quality of the simulation visually.
