Edit

  • Nov 24, 2021 – initial commit.

  • Nov 26, 2021 – Major change: now convert all the 8-bit folder in given folder to videos Change name to to_vid.py

  • Dec 08, 2021 – Check if the target .avi file exists already. If so, skip the conversion.

  • Jan 05, 2023 – Adapt myimagelib import style.

  • Feb 08, 2023 – Rewrite in function wrapper form, to make autodoc work properly. (autodoc import the script and execute it, so anything outside if __name__=="__main__" will be executed, causing problems)
