Render to images using png (has alpha channel so background becomes transparent) then bring into program for making movie. AVIs do not support transparent background per sec so you are best to do images. You can use JASC Paintshop Pro Animation shop to import/manipulate and make the movie. if using P5 - you are allowed to have 1 laptop and 1 desktop installation so shouldn't be a problem to render but it is - if you are on a lan - p5 notices that you are running it on 2 different machines and makes you close one of them. Usually doesnt notice until after it finishes the render though. Is kind of a pain as I use my laptop to make animation and due to the wireless slowness ?word? and lack of harddisk/memory on laptop; I use desktop to render firefly.
