Hi everyone

I'm back again, every time I get a new version there are always things I don't get.

I'm working my way through it and I got to the point where I'm trying to make a sample animation, I want to see if it's really faster and how much.

Here's the problem, when I click on Make Movie it goes to a new window.

I can understand most of it, you now select the size and kind of fire you want to output in the lower left area of the Window.

So I did, I selected AVI uncompressed. That's very fast to render for things that are small clips when you don't care about the size of it.

Here's the problem, when I get it all set up, the only option on the page is Render Images.

No matter what I put in the output information when I start the process, it just renders PNG files.

How can I get it to do the many other options that it shows when I select something?

Any help is welcome,

I didn't have to ask how to get a clean starting window this time.

I'm not a fan of the changes to movie exporting myself.  The previously quick and simple process is more inconvenient and a little problematic (at least for me as an animator).  Hopefully it comes back around in a future version. 

Before you export, be extra careful to check the output file name is correct each time.  This is a new problem to be aware of.   It will no longer automatically update the filename when you save new versions of your Poser scene.  This makes it very easy to accidentally overwrite your last export.
