Default << Codec problem >>

Every render I make as a movie is crappy looking - I use the cinepak at 100 quality. Its really poor - what do you reccomend to use for best quality?

Cheers
Chris

Get the latest DivX codec. It's around $30 to get the full DivX pro codec and this will allow you to produce at least VHS quality images at a reasonable compression.

Alternatively, you might want to also look at the Sorensen MPEG codecs (although I'm not sure on the licensing cost of these).
