Can't run VTKAVIWRITER - Unable to compress avi file
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
I got the same error message when trying to save an animation. I am running ParaView Version 3.10.1 64-bit on windows 7. Here is the error message:
ERROR: In ........\source\VTK\IO\vtkAVIWriter.cxx, line 172 vtkAVIWriter (000000000B7E0DC0): Unable to compress N:\images-ucsd\traumatic-brain-injury\Subjects\Burin2011-03-03\vis\Burin-02.avi
I have the CVID codec installed in Windows Media Player Version 12.0.7601.17514 ICM Cinepak Codec by Radius cvid iccvid.dll 1.10.0.13
I searched for "iccvid.dll" on my system and found 4 copies in various folders.

I used to be able to save animations with an older version of ParaView Version 3.6.2 running on WindowsXP. So, I'm guessing it's an issue with Windows 7 compatibility.
