Hi again, Bobosaur you are entirely correct. However I have used low end video editors for many years and the capture size is 720 x 480. For some of the low end editors its even 16 bit color. My answer was based on a person using Poser / Bryce and a video editor like Pinnacle studio 9 or vegas movie studio 4.0 or Microsoft Movie. (Xp sp2 version is not that bad. My main editing is home video or in-house presentations where the video is sourced from camera, titling is mostly in editor and rendering is out to DVD. If you want broadcast quality you go to higher end software. The biggest hassle in rendering in Poser etc is remembering NO CIRCLES. They don't render out exactly unless you compensate. Also , if you are going to assemble video for dvd do not use a codec that uses a lossy compression method. The files will be converted to an mpeg format when compiling the DVD. usenet groups rec.video.desktop and rec.video.production carry these discussions. Access through Goggle groups. I asked the pixel aspect question and the discussion went for weeks getting more and more detailed.
