Application to finalize the animation

I'm a beginner so forgive me if something is trivial.
When an animation is finished you will find in a folder a bunch jpeg's and a wav so I wondering with which program one can assemble the pictures and audio in something readable from a media-player.
Thanks

There are some free programs out there... check the "other software" forum.
However you may be able to skip this part and render as QT or AVI directly from Moho.
Apparently you are rendering out an image sequence.

I'll do that.

Maybe in linux I don't have such opportunities. (iìll look the free software or I'll download the win ver that I'll use just to generate the .avi final file.

Yeah, with the linux version you're not going to be able to generate avi or mov. Your best bet is probably going to be to generate mpeg with mjpegtools (
http://mjpegtools.sourceforge.net).
Here is a section from the manual on creating a mpeg file from a series of images:
https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_ ... 5776#ss4.1
Let me know if you have any trouble and I'll see if I can help.

Depending on your requirements, other possibilities also exist for converting image sequences into movie files.
mencoder does a good job of converting image sequences to AVI in various codecs, if you don't mind working at the command-line.
See
http://www.cscs.ch/~mvalle/mencoder/mencoder.html or
http://www.vsp.tu-berlin.de/archive/sim ... howto.html
GUI-wise, there is the
open-source video editor Cinelerra which I think imports image sequences - you can also add sound, effects, etc.
There is also
MainActor, a medium-priced commercial video editor for Linux - I think it imports image sequences, but check that because I'm not sure.

I have read through the MainActor manual, but I couldn't find an image sequence importer, although you can import stills one-by-one. The program seems to be primarily targeted to the video hobbyist market, although you can do bluescreen/greenscreen insertion of a still image (hence the still image import filter).
So I think if you can use this program as a compositor, it will be very limited, in the sense that you will have little control over it. I think you'll be better off if you composite your image sequences to a video file and then use a program like this, if you need to.
I'm sure Cinelerra has enough program options to enable you to edit your movie and it IS a compositor by design.
