Yes, the AVI is just the RAW video with a header and
footer, near as I can tell. But no player other than
mPlayer has so far been able to read it. I need either
Animation Shop or ImageReady to read it so that I can
import it. ImageReady technically loads it, but the
frames just show up as white screens.
I don't know if there's a "standard" per se, but I
know that most programs that allow you to choose your
compression scheme has a "Full Frames (uncompressed)"
option, and I just figured that it uses some kind of
standard for that.
