An uncompressed AVI is approximately 12 percent larger than the total size
of the individual frames.

The expanse of disk space I have now made me forget about the zip file
option, good thinking Shawn. The down side of course, as is the case for any
option, is the compilation time which increases with each successive frame
addition.

Yeah, much better compression though quite slower. The good thing
about ZIPs is that they are cross-platform. Also, there are many
utilities that treat ZIPs as directories, so if you make an empty ZIP
and set it to be the output directory for POV...

I find RAR to be as fast, if not faster, than ZIP. What version are you
using?
