Converting an image sequence to video

So I have several pieces of software which output a series of images which I would like to view in sequence as a video.

The software I currently use for this is VirtualDub with the x264 codec. VirtualDub makes it easy to change framerate.

I used this guide for x264 settings:

(I had a little trouble with output to start with so changed to the default x264VfW settings for now)
