Can makeQuicktimeMovie be used for png file?

Question

I am using JES, and have my png files ready to makeQuicktimeMovie. I can't find anywhere, can I use png files?

The JES function as follows:

def makeQuicktimeMovie():
  file = pickAFile()
  myMovie = makeMovieFromInitialFile(file)
  writeQuicktime(myMovie, "C:\\myframes\\myMovie.mov", 30)

Answer 1

Here is the document:

makeMovieFromInitialFile(filename):

filename: string path to the first frame of the movie.

returns: a Movie object using the given file as the first frame Takes a filename as input. Returns a Movie object using the given file as the first frame and using sequentially named files for subsequent frames (i.e. frame001, frame002, etc.)

EDIT :

It seems that both writeQuicktime() and writeAVI() work with .jpgs sequences ONLY (tested under Windows and Linux).
