<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>I downloaded and installed the basic and 64-bit codecs from the site you referenced below:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial><A href="http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm" target=_blank>http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm</A></FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>It seems that this basic version should include Cinepak, which has the codec CVID:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>However, even with these installed (and my machine restarted), I still get the same error when trying to save an animation using ParaView 3.10.1. However, I did verify that I was able to save an animation using the same data as visualized in ParaView 3.8.1.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>Any other suggestions (besides using ParaView 3.8.1 when I need to save animations)?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Hi Emily,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I reverted some changes to vtkAVIWriter so that this will use the old MSVC codec which has been problematic for some, but the change hasn't been part of a binary release yet. If you use ParaView 3.8 you should be able to save as avi. Alternatively, 3.10.1 is attempting to use a better codec called CVID. If you install one of the various codec packages on the internet containing cvid that might also solve your problem, assuming you can install software on your machine.
