Actually, no. It's Huffyuv compressed.

I have "ffdshow" installed on my PC, which means that I can compress 
videos with VirtualDub. However, for reasons I don't full understand, it 
is impossible to *decompress* videos with VirtualDub. The videos play 
perfectly well, but when you ask VD to open them, it utterly insists 
that it can't find the correct codec. (My best guess is that it's 
looking for a codec named "Huffyuv", and ffdshow isn't called "Huffyuv".)

Does anybody know how to force VD to use ffdshow to decode the video? If 
you select the "advanced open dialog", it offers to let you specify a 
"FOURCC code", but I don't know if that helps...
