immovie

Make a movie of a multiframe indexed image

Syntax

• mov = immovie(X,map)
  mov = immovie(RGB)
  

Description

mov = immovie(X,map) returns the movie structure array, mov, from the images in the multiframe indexed image X with the colormap map. As it creates the movie array, it displays the movie frames on the screen. You can play the movie using the MATLAB movie function. For details about the movie structure array, see the reference page for getframe.

X comprises multiple indexed images, all having the same size and all using the colormap map. X is an m-by-n-by-1-by-k array, where k is the number of images.

mov = immovie(RGB) returns the movie structure array mov from the images in the multiframe, truecolor image RGB.

RGB comprises multiple truecolor images, all having the same size. RGB is an m-by-n-by-3-by-k array, where k is the number of images.

Remarks

You can also use the MATLAB function avifile to make movies from images. The avifile function creates AVI files. In addition, you can convert an existing MATLAB movie into an AVI file by using the movie2avi function.

Class Support

An indexed image can be uint8, uint16, double, or logical. A truecolor image can be uint8, uint16, or double. mov is a MATLAB movie structure.

Example

• load mri
  mov = immovie(D,map);
  movie(mov,3)
