Karen,

I don't use ImageMixer.... there's a post on the Digital Camcorders > Sony
page of my site - dated 4/28/04 - by someone saying he right clicks the
video thumbnail in Imagemixer and chooses "export as movie" > to export as
an AVI.... but he was talking about a Sony DVD camcorder.

But I was pointing out the same info to someone 2 nights ago and she said
she didn't get any menu when right-clicking a thumbnail in Imagemixer...

And I've never seen flydragon so I can't comment.... so I'm not much help.
Just wanted you to know that your situation might be one where you need to
convert motion JPEG to AVI.... hopefully someone else can help you with a
way to do it. The posts I read about it are similar to yours... good video
but problems with the audio.
