Hi, i suppose that we will see AVI support in 3DR5 quite naturally, developping R5 under NT makes AVI-access for the developpers so easy to obtain like any othe call to the OS. We are a in a different situation with the AVIs: We render in broadcast PAL, (25 fps/ 768*576 Pix/ 24 bit), resulting in getting 30 seconds of material on one 1GB hdd. If we want to apply something like a dynamic filter with one of the Windows-basing softs, we often forced to get all the frames through the ethernet, time-comsuming, disk-space-eating, machine blockin… But there is a solution right now: somewhere in the forum they we're talking about an IPAS compiling rendered frames dirctly into AVI. Will keep you informed as soon I find the message again… Bye from Stuttgart, Germany Jan / Imagelab
