I test one file: wmv-> 22mb, avi->237mb
make sure you are compressing the avi this a codec like xvid... You should be able to get a better conversion size. My test was a wmv 2.13 mb to avi(xvid) 2.27 mb. Sounds like you made a uncompressed avi...!!!
I am not a friend of avi files. What do you mean with "ask"?
The 'Ask the Developers ' thread on this forum allows you to directly talk to jcl about the engine, and because this could be called a bug , the "Bug Report" thread could be used to ASK for and update. LOL good luck!
