It just wish that this always work.  Here is what happened to me:

I made an AVI from Lightwave, 30 frames 59x72 resolution, 8 bit.  MainActor
Broadcast made it into a beatiful AVI that was 140k big (the anim-5 of
it was 130k).  I wanted it smaller so I took it to work, and ran it though
TransJammer.  I ended up with a 15 frame, 59x72, high compression anim (that
looks worse!) and it 150k!!!!  If only MainActor Broadcast had speed controls
for AVI files...
