Dear Nadia,
I am not aware of any automated way to do that but you can do it
manually in case you dont have hundreds of movies to make.
1. Select from the IED menu the eigenvector that you are interested in.
2. Render images by moving the eigenvector cursor from minimum to
maximum (lets say if your minimum is -45 and maximum +45, you can
render at -45 -35 -25 ... +35 +45)
3. Convert those images to ppm by "convert file.tga file.ppm"
4. Use ppmtompeg to convert your ppm images to mpeg movie. ppmtompeg
requires a parameter file..(see "man ppmtompeg" for details) An example
of parameter file that works is given below.
If somebody has a better way, I am also interested in it.
Best wishes
