What codec do you use? I cannot view a singel animation
of your's...

I've been using Intel Indeo video 5.04.

What should I be using? Is there a preferred standard?

Guess that's just more updated so if you went with compatiblity you'd
probably have to go with the old Cinepak by Radius (which is pretty good
anyway) or older MS ones like MS Video 1 (yuck).

Cinepak is very, very messy even at normal compression rates, and it
has the problem of leaving coloured motion trails when fast motion
occurs. MPEG would be the best choice if available, and Indeo 5.0x for
AVIs. It is more common than you think, at least on the Windows
platform. It comes with Win98 and 5.04 comes with Media Player 6.4
(freely downloadable from ms.com).

Hmmm, well I just took another look at Cinepak, used it at 100 quality
(best) and 150kb rate, every 15th frame interleave.  It didn't look any
worse than a good Jpg when freeze-framed.  90 frames of 240x180 res. made
for a 929KB file, not too bad imo.  I think I know what you mean though, if
you try to compress it, the comparison to more recent codecs is nul and void
then.  Actually I couldn't say what the average type is being used these
days, though I should think most anyone doing this sort of thing would have
updated to codecs put out at least within a couple years ago which should
mean the Indeo 4.* ones at least and above.
