I have rendered many Poser animations directly to AVI with the DivX codec, but it's no fun to wake up the next morning to find the process failed overnight. So, per the good advice offered here by kuroyume0161 and others, I'm now rendering animations as collections of still images in PNG format, and then assembling them into video clips with Adobe Premiere Elements 1.0.

Premiere Elements is pretty good, though I've read that Version 3 is buggy, so I'm on the lookout for other editors, and other output formats besides DivX. That's why I'm intrigued by the generally positive remarks above about WMV quality, and Ockham's comment in particular that "WMV is easy to assemble from images by using the MovieMaker application that comes with Windows."

I looked around in MovieMaker and its Help file, but came up empty-handed. Can anyone describe how to import a set of sequentially-numbered images into MovieMaker?

Thanks,
Rick
