I've been trying to look for a nice cross-platform QT converter
solution. There are definitely a few commercial apps out there
(MetaRender looks like one, part of the iridas tools),
and some freeware apps as well (qt-tools, libquicktime, ffmpeg),
but many of the freeware apps are not "cross platform".
Some suggestions for command line quicktime converters I've seen:
Framecycler (SequencePublisher/MetaRender)
Nuke
Shake
Fusion

djv_convert
ImageMagick+OpenQuicktime (alternative to ffmpeg)
MEncoder (http://www.mplayerhq.hu)
libquicktime + custom code
qt-tools (qt_export tool)
One you haven't mentioned: Silverstack from Pomfort: www.pomfort.com
Our pipeline at the moment is: we render downsized, LUT-converted JPEGs
in the same setup as the main DPX files as a second output. After the
job is done I submit a job to the renderqueue of Silverstack (called
Cinemator) on a small Mac mini to generate quicktimes from these JPEGs.
Silverstack can create templates for burnin, LUT conversion, codec, etc.
which you can use while submitting the job to Cinemator on the commandline.
At the moment, Cinemator is a GUI app which can be fed by a commandline
command, but what I heard is that they are working on a more
sophisticated solution.
Maybe you want to have a look on it.
