I see what you mean about the quality. Very strobe-like frame to frame.
Also, it looks like you used radiosity in your scene file and that is
probably making the central piece flicker from bright to dark. Otherwise it
ought to remain steady enough even if a mpeg compressed animation, so it
sure seems radiosity is at fault there. Don't know if I could suggest good
settings to prevent that.

Using cmpeg the file output type ought to be uncompressed Targa, +ft not
+fc, at least I don't think compressed Targa will work. I've used the
workable way so long I forget what does not. I also use starting frame
number 0 not 1, since the command line way won't accept 1 unless you set up
a file list instead. Maximum resolution is 512x320 I believe, the Cmpeg.Doc
tells that if you check it. Isn't 1.333:1 aspect ratio anyhow, but other
res.'s based on multiples of 16 pixels should be okay if lower than those
numbers.
