Hi Richard,

You are stuck with xAnim as your video middleman.  See <http:// 
support.runrev.com/bugdatabase/show_bug.cgi?id=2290> for more info on  
it.  I found the video quality to be somewhere back in the early 90's.

Once xAnim is properly setup, I did find it to be very reliable  
though.  You will have to re-compress your video to support the older  
codec support.
