Howto
Use Terminal. Navigate to directory with pictures. Then type:
Note that filaname.avi is the output file name. Note: # -q:v can get a value between 2-31. 2 is best quality and bigger size, 31 is worst quality and least size)
Using ffmpeg
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg ffmpeg -r 25 -pattern_type glob -i '*.jpg' -c:v mjpeg -q:v 2 filename.avi
Using avconv
Some versions of debian/ubuntu don't have ffmpeg; they use avtools instead. This process is 2-step, as avconv will not take the '*" glob.
sudo apt-get install libav-tools
ls *.jpg| awk 'BEGIN{ a=0 }{ printf "mv %s imageToStich%04d.jpg\n", $0, a++ }' | bash
avconv -y -r 25 -i imageToStich%4d.jpg -r 25 -vcodec libx264 -q:v 3 filename.mp4
