One image does not constitute a video, why do this?

Would it not be easier to make a *.gif if you need an animation made of screenshots?

The best code I know which can do it all and a lot more is FFMpeg or libavcodec. Please see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ffmpeg[^],
http://ffmpeg.org/[^],
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libavcodec[^],
http://libav.org/[^].

But how to use it programmatically? Please see my past answers:
how to convert image to video in C#[^],
HTML5 and Mime, Streaming a video?[^],
How to trim the video using Directshow!?[^].

And there is no such thing as just "video". If you want to make video, you will probably need to learn how it works, at least get an idea on video containers/formats and codecs and learn basics about many of then, as well as compatibility problems, licensing and other related issues:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_container[^],
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codec[^],
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_container_formats[^],
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source_codecs_and_containers[^],
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_codecs[^],
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_video_codecs[^].

You will find a good number of information on the containers and codecs above, but note: FFMpeg and libavcodec support most of them.
