what video codecs do you have installed? do you have any xvid or fddshow?
Would you accept a bink file or a self playing bink?

Regarding the Codec:
Best is always to use MPG1. That's a codec which
runs for everyone. Even if you may use smaller resolutions
and less detail (which isn't exactly needed at this point
anyways), no one will complain. And you can still post
larger versions (to the 1MB limit) and other Codecs
if asked for.
Regarding the Bubbles:
Perhaps shoot a (or several of em) trace() at it and see
if they hit the bubble in question or a different one first.
I'd have to think longer to come up with something more
useful and efficient.

I have DivX3.11, 4.12, 5.02 and ffdshow 0.4.6 build 4616 (hmm, that looks
old :/ )

I'd rather see an MPEG :)

The computer gods are working against me on that mpg1 thing.
Most of the links to CMPEG on povray.org were broken, no other software I
know of works to convert still images to mpg, coverting from avi to mpg is
kind of a bad solution, and once I did manage to download CMPEG I can't
quite get it to work. It refuses to open my TGA files. "Couldn't open
'attracters001.tga'"
oh well. I don't have all day to waste on figuring out why. Sorry :/
as for trace, that's not a bad idea, but it will only work if there's
objects there that can coorespond to points, I think. and that won't always
be the case if I am to turn those points into surfaces rather than spheres.
Though it does give me some options to explore. I have continued ideas in
the P.A group.

If you are on windows, render to png instead which are smaller files with
no image loss. Then use Tmpgenc with the png plugin.
http://www.tmpgenc.net/
http://news.povray.org/povray.binaries.utilities/15796/
It also does Divx, and most any other encoder on your system. If you are on
linux, I have heard that it runs with wine. I need to test that out soon.

I feel like a tmpgenc evangelist.

Thank you. After a little difficulty figuring it out (couldn't get png
support to work, maybe I will eventually).. I managed to encode, although
it is 8 times larger than the original file I posted here.
Here it is.
