Thanks, Daniel,
I haven’t tried Quicktime uncompressed – maybe I will . . . but the point is it should work with uncompressed avi and doesn’t.
Think I’ll take your advice and try Sorenson again – I must have something incompatibe which is spooking it, I think.

Thanks Daniel and Ben. . . .
The message, which pops up almost immediately on pressing ‘squeeze’ simply says ‘there was an error compressing the film’ or words to that effect – doesn’t help much!
I should also have said that I need to compress showreels for use on my web site so I really would like to solve this.
Any more ideas, please?
