Compression format
I was looking through the forum, trying to find what format to compress things to, and most people said either use .WMV or the Divx Codecs, I used the Divx, and it shrunk a 13 second clip to 49.1 MB. That seems a bit large, especially when you look at it's quality. basically, I'm looking to find out what Mushiman compressed The Robbery with, because that one had good quality and didn't have huge size for it's length. I'm putting this in the board because I want to know if their are any better ones, and I want this information available to the public.

I hadn't eather, then my brother got a copy, and we couldn't figure it out. you should try the Windows media 9 codec, TechTV did a piece on it and they liked it better then both divix and quicktime, which is strange being that its from Microsoft, also its free. Thats what I'm going to use for my next flick, I want to say its desent quality, for about a meg a min.

I tried to compress a 13 second clip. It "Shrunk" to 40-somethign MB, then I put it into a Zipped folder, compressing it to 20-something MB using Divx, and you don't have very good video quality
