Convert image to AVI

Hello, I would like to get some suggestions about how to modify the attached code. Essentially, it is a part of a larger code aimed at segmenting and tracking focal adhesions. Since the function avifile has been replaced by writeVideo, the code does not work anymore. Could someone suggest how to modify it? I am currently using MATLAB_R2016b on a MacBook Pro Retina (running 10.12). Thank you in advance, Antonio

function [ output_args ] = images2Avi(searchstring, outfilename, fps, quality, width)
%IMAGES2AVI Summary of this function goes here
%   quality 1..100

dirlist = dir(searchstring);
files = {dirlist.name};
inpath = dirlist.folder;
filename = fullfile(inpath, outfilename);

vidobj = VideoWriter(filename, 'Uncompressed AVI');
vidobj.FrameRate = fps;
vidobj.Quality = quality;

open(vidobj)
for k = 1:length(files)
    im = imread(fullfile(inpath, files{k}));
    %Insert other image-processing codes here
    writeVideo(vidobj, imresize(im, [NaN width]));
end
close(vidobj)

Hi Image Analyst, Thank you for your help. I am a cell biologist, hence it will take a while for me to understand the attached examples. I wanted to tell you that my code generates two AVI file from two types of files (see attached examples). Essentially, one AVI file is for the representation of the tracked objects as contours (greyscale). The other is for the RGB representation of the objects as regions. I do not understand how your code above can generate the two AVIs. Probably it is not easy for your to understand as you do not have the entire code. I suggest to take a look at the attached paper to see what the code does. Thanks again for your help. Antonio
