Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NickeManarin/ScreenToGif/issues/546

I've successfully exported shorter videos I recorded with ScreenToGif, but I recently tried recording a longer one (1,531 frames) and ScreenToGif seems to have trouble exporting it as an .avi. It corrupts the colors and shows frames out of order.

Here's the project file:

If I Save as "Vdieo" @ 30 fps, with "Flip the video (vertically)." checked, then select the .avi extension with System encoder (100% quality), the result is a video that doesn't match the captured frames.

I recommend using FFmpeg and exporting as MP4 instead.
The inbuilt AVI encoder is not optimal, also it really depends of which compressor you used.
Some work, some don't. :/

I tested creating an uncompressed video and a video using the Intel IYUV compressor and both worked normally, just the file size was big.

Which compressor did you use, btw?

I chose "Full Frames (Uncompressed)" when I hit this bug.

I just tried with a different encoder and it did output the video successfully. Thanks for your help!
