Thanks Ronn

I tried out the new 6.3 version. It is not writing AVIs properly. As
you know, your test program aviKRtest.pro calls avi_openw with the
OPTION keyword set, so that it shows a "Video Compression" dialog for
setting the AVI format etc. If I accept the default (Full Frames
Uncompressed) then an AVI file is produced, but it is not readable,
either by the IDL code later in the routine or by an external
application. If I change the AVI format to Microsoft Video 1 (an oldie
but a goodie) then I get an error: "AVI_OPENW: Unable to avi stream
format".

BTW: at your leisure, perhaps you could clarify the relationship
between your DLM and Oleg's DLL and your plans for the DLM. Is there
any chance of merging some of Oleg's 2005 improvements into your
version? Also, do you intend to keep upgrading your DLM for new
versions of IDL. (I presume you do, as you have just done it for 6.3!).
And does/could your DLM work with 64-bit Windows? As I have said, I
find your DLM extremely useful and am keen to see it continue. I would
be willing to pay money to ensure this happens.

BTW 2: receiving new IDL versions Here in NZ *before* everyone else is
a new experience. IN the good old days we were weeks behind. They must
be feeding the carrier pigeons extra rations!
