True. My main purpose for fixing the problem was to simply fix my logo, which I am more than willing to let it slide seeing that my future projects will have the fixed version featured in them.

Thanks for all the help and advice, everyone.

What happens if you try HuffYUV-YV12*? My comp is nearing 8 years old and it can play such files back fairly smoothly, depending on resolution and footage complexity.

Also more specifically known as YV12-mode ffvhuff. It's the implementation included in ffdshow (the choice to encode it requires ffdshow's VFW interface). My suggestion is to set it for Plane prediction, and to use the adaptive huffman tables option. Because of the differences with the normal HuffYUV, you'll have to use ffdshow to decode it.

Just make sure it's a recent build of ffdshow:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... _id=199416


To illustrate visually what I'm talking about here (I just found this image on the web since I didn't want to screenshot it myself - the only difference is that the screenshot is set for Median prediction rather than Planar; Median is slower but compresses better - similarly, Left prediction is even faster and compresses less):
