Blender eh? I have used blender for a lot of things but do you export the houdini scene into blender, or can blender convert an image sequence into a video file?

Hey all, I have been using 3DS Max on windows for a few years, however I have recently begun changing over to the Linux platform. I have downloaded the Houdini Apprentice version and in a lot of ways I just had to get used to the interface and I was back in action. But there is a problem, although I can render out my image sequence just fine and I am not yet familiar enough with the command line to understand how to make mencoder /mcp to convert my image sequence into a video, I have looked at the make movie wiki but still haven’t had any luck.

I currently have 24 images in there own folder, ranging from Test1 – Test24, I have the Mplayer installed with nearly every coded available, would some one be willing to give me a short break down of how the command line actually works?

Thank you very much!
