Thanks for the reply and info.
Yeah, I managed to render out the individual frames okay but when i piece them togehter with 'Image to AVI' or even Jasc's Animation Shop i don't get the same quality video, though it works okay in reading in the photos and piecing them together.
I will try Premiere. I can't help but think it's the way I use the compressor, meaning maybe I need to have LW write out non-compressed images (which get very large) and then when I piece them together I use the compressor to reduce the size. or, I write out the images from LW using my typical MPEG compressor and don't compress again when I piece them together. It seems I have tried both techniques but don't to get the same results as when I simply write out to a video file. I need to run through the tests again to be sure.
And your point exactly, I want to do individual images so as to 'splice' out bugs and patch in new pieces, all without having to recrunch the whole video.
thanks again.
Paul
