I also work with VirtualDub. Thanks for the tip with the codecs. It works with the codec DivX 5 .0.5. I make an avi video with Muvizu, then I save as uncompressed avi file. I compress with VirtualDub using the DivX codec. Now I can use the file as a backdrop. Many many thanks

You can try putting your AVI through Virtual Dub video editor and compressing it to Xvid or some other similar codec and then trying to import it onto a backdrop again. This is the usual method I use.

Here is the download link for Virtual Dub: http://virtualdub.org/

There is also tutorials on YouTube to use it, although it's quite straight forward.

Just drag and drop your AVI into the window when Virtual Dub opens. Go to 'Video' tab at the top. Down to 'Compression' then select Xvid, or similar codec. Then File > Save As AVI.

Once it finishes, you can try importing it again!

I hope this helps.
