You can use the open() method of visad.data.vis5d.Vis5DForm
to read a Vis5D file into a VisAD data object. Or you can
simply do 'data = load("filename.v5d")' in VisAD Python.
Then create an appropriate display and use the static method

  visad.util.Util.captureDisplay(DisplayImpl disp, String filename)

to save it to a JPEG file. Or do 'saveplot(display, filename)'
in VisAD Python. There'll be some fiddling to create an
appropriate display. See Ugo'd VisAD tutorial or Tom's VisAD
Python tutorial for help on that.

Good luck,
Bill
