avifil32.dll compression? bmp to avi

[thrasher251]

Hi, i need some desparate help using "avifil32.dll" in VB.net

I'm probly just a terrible coder ...

as an example I've attached a basic program that takes a picturebox and turns it into an AVI.

The problem i have is i cant seem to figure out how to compress the AVI during output, it grows to 400mb in about 10 seconds, and i need to run the program for hours.

Any help would be appreciated

-Thanks

The attached project seems to be missing the avi.vb file - makes it kind of difficult to follow the project.

When you create the video are you specifying a particular codec? If not you are going to be generating an uncompressed stream which would explain the large file size.
