TAviWriter Component and AVIs from Jpegs

[ajbufort]

Hi Guys,

Trying to use TAviWriter (

http://www.torry.net/pages.php?id=168)

in a program I am writing in order to save a series of jpegs out as an AVI. When I view the resulting movie, however, the colors are splotchy and everything is just plain crappy. What factors might be affecting this? My jpegs in themselves look great before I try to turn them into an AVI. Using simple code like this in a procedure which gets called repeatedly:

if ( SavingAsAVI ) then
begin
  aviBMP := TBitmap.Create;
  jpegAVI := TJpegImage.Create;
  jpegAVI.LoadFromFile(PicturePathName);
  aviBMP.Assign(jpegAVI);

  AviWriter.Bitmaps.Add(aviBMP);
  jpegAVI.Free;
end;

Anyone have any idea what the deal is? Do I have to use a special CODEC or something? If so, how do I use that with TAviWriter?

Thanks,

-Tony
