How do I convert PDF files into video files (AVI/DIVX/MPEG or other)

I have a collection of PDF files that I'd like to turn into videos. Ideally the video would consist of a full page view scrolling at a slow enough speed to read. The application 'GoodReader' on the iPhone has a feature where the pdf 'scrolls up'. Im looking for a way to create 'pdf videos', that I can watch on my pc.
If I can't get the scrolling thats fine, but I cannot find any programs that actually work. Many crash when trying to convert the (quite small) files.
Any help with this would be welcome - I'm looking for something that will take my pdf files, and create a video that displays the pages (either scrolling or non scrolling).
thanks.
