My Animation Shop cannot open avi files, in File->Open there is no format avi. When i drop the avi file on Animation Shop window it display me that "Cannot open from the avi file". I have version 3.05. On the other way it accepts mpeg, so i can find a tool to convert avi->mpeg.

I got 3.02 myself and it works for me. Get VirtualDub (it's free) and convert the avi file to another codec (uncompressed RGB) and try to load that new avi again with Animation Shop.

ah I see. But you do know that dosbox supports making itself as well (completely lossless)
but nevertheless it looks very cool.

Unfortunately not, some frames (only a little) are corrupted:

This is probably because, when dosbox is capturing the screen, game engine is refreshing the screen, so we have some part from previous frame, and some parts from the new... I don't know why, but my program isn't making this error 😀

Huh, you can modify dosbox, instead of putting frames to AVI zmvb, change it to create and save a PNG, GIF or BMP for each frame...there even is a screenshot call which can be exploited.

I've probably to do this.
