Is Bink a style of codec-based compression program like, for instance, Sorensen compression for Quicktime, or Indeo for MS avi files? The reason I ask is that, we all know we should avoid recompressing an already compressed file or else face degradation of image quality, so I should not try to Bink an already compressed file in order to shrink it more because the image quality will suffer, right? Or is there something different about how Bink works that would allow it to further compress an already compressed file with minimal loss of quality.

I don't know the 'technicalities' of the situation.. but I used Indeo compression on my babycakes animation and the file was 5Mb. The same file was 18Mb with standard MS .avi compression. I then 'Binked' it at 20% and it IMPROVED the color and contrast! I then made the .bik file into an .exe and it's only 1.1Mb babycakes.exe
