JPEG sizes for video - a bug?

[potwnc]

When I produce an exe, I generally reduce my JPEG files to around 200KB as some of my clients will have older computers that don't have the CPU power to handle larger files. But when it comes to video output should the JPEG file size matter?

I work with different files for video output as I want the best quality possible in the final video. So these JPEGs range from 500 to 800 KB. I just finished a show of about 14 minutes, with about 250 transitions (all fades, 0.5 - 2.0 seconds). When I watch the DVD on my player/TV I see occasional flickering to other slides that shouldn't be there. For example, when slide #159 appears, there are about 7 or 8 frames showing slide #1. The same project produces an exe that plays perfectly on my PC (Pentium 4, 3.0 GHz, 1GB RAM).

Is this a bug? Or should we be using smaller files for video output also? To Igor: If it's a bug, I'd suggest there might be some video frame caching that is not being dumped/overwritten properly.

Has anyone else experienced this? (I'm using beta #5.)

Ray, vertical wavy lines are common occurences on right side of screen -- i have been using picts that are 1024/768, the having selected the full screen box, reduce screen size to 90% -- i lost the picture vertical borders/edges - thus the waviness goes

it has been mentioned on forum before and i had some comments/thoughts on it and i thought there were some other entries. When the first 2 4.2 beta's came out it was brought up.
