usage() {
    cat <<USAGE

Usage: ${0##*/} [OPTIONS] ...
options:
  -dir   | -d <dir>   directory containing png images (default local dir)
  -fps   | -f <fps>   frames per second (default = 10)
  -help  | -h         print the usage
  -image | -i <name>  name of image sequence (default = image)
  -out   | -o <name>  name of output video file (default = video)
  -start | -s <frame> specify the start frame number for avconv
  -webm  | -w         WebM output video file format

Creates a video file from a sequence of PNG images
- A sequence named "image" will expect files image.0000.png, image.0001.png, etc
- The default output video compression format is MPEG-4, with WebM as an option
- The default file name, using MPEG-4 compression, is video.mp4
- By default the video codec is high resolution

Requires avconv or mencoder for MPEG-4 output, avconv for WebM output
