Codemunkie, big thanks mate, I was actually using VirtualDub which is suggested on the site so I will give it a whirl. Will report back here with any results.

Hello.

I have successfully compressed some ARGB2 video files and the alpha is retained. The files are in some cases 33% of their original size and the performance is much better, however there is just one question that I have.

The output from the AVI decompressor is RGB32 not ARGB32 which my Custom Renderer accepts. Directshow kindly inserts a Colour Space Filter for me and converts the RGB32 to an ARGB32 but is this acceptable?? Will the alpha still be present Is looks like it is when rendered, but I just need to know for sure..

Actually I lied there is another question :)

Codemunkie, you metioned that you have done this kind of thing before. Did you notice that you ever had white flashes on the texture where the video should have been rendered? I keep getting these and I can't get them to go away, any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
