Hey guys,
When this happens, are the characters standing on top of a stage or objects?
Cheers,

I'm definitely no expert when it comes to codecs or video editors for that matter but I've been using AVS video editor for awhile now and I haven't had any problems. The final file sizes I get from AVS have been pretty good too.
Most all of the animations I've created up to now have been created with AVS.
It's not the most "robust" video editor available but it has enough "bells and whistles" to allow me to create pretty much what I want thus far. I also have Sony Vegas Pro installed on my system and once I learn how to use it better I plan on using it for video editing but for now AVS is getting the job done.
Mysto, did you register AVS? I just used AVS to edit my next Toon which is basically done, I just need to rerender it if I decide to register AVS...Not sure though, because I read people have issues w/AVS being a legit purchase? Like it's ripping them off and/or failing after they register it. Please let me know if anyone has had issues with registering AVS. I also downloaded videopad, sony vegas, avs, avs seems easy...I'm using the free version so I have the watermark. I'm trying ti figure out which editor has the easiest audio editing features....Sony was kickin out huge file sizes for me and I am not yet savvy with creating variations in volume throughout different tracks....

OK, this is not just specifically useful for Muvizu but if you're using any iteration of Vegas and are trying to get to grips with it then go to youtube and type guerillabill (Bill Myers channel). When you are on the channel then just type vegas on the channel search bar and there are a ton of tutorials. For me at least, these are the best produced and most straightforward tutorials going and most are only about 3 minutes long.
The tutorials that helped me most for combining muvizu and live action were:
Secret for great chromakey (ie green screen)
Pan and crop
Slow motion
There are a load of little tricks on the other tutorials however that can be used to help add effects to muvizu.

I'll have another look into this - what graphics card are you guys using?

Really good choice ! 
Although I like a lot of Gotye songs more than this, the following video is also something for the heart:

I work on a short story for this project based on Joseph Campbell's works.
This is an old video, an old test, but I think that I shall adapt my short story in film script. That's possible.
Time will tell.

And in Vegas, you could very easyly crop the 1280x720 rushs to get a 960x720 final movie (HD 4/3 ratio)
The positive point is to get an HD movie
The negative point is to direct in 16/9 then edit in 4/3
In Muvizu, I don't know how to get a 960x720 codec.
We don't have this resolution available, I don't think it's been asked for before. I've added it to the wall of post it notes so we can add it in

Hi Wabby,
The breathe option is a little misleading, I admit, it basically works when you put the character into a pose animation. This is because there are 2 types of breathing applied to characters. The first is a general, overall, breathe layer and the other is done within the animations played by characters. The drop down option to stop a character breathing affects the general breathing layer added to characters so to see the result you need to use animations that don't have additional breathing blending into them, such as the end of pose animations. There's some more info in this thread, from Gordon who made it possible.
http://muvizu.com/forum/topic1095-suggestions.aspx?p=f#post8548
Give it a go. Create 2 characters, one with breathing and one without. Record the same pose animation on each of them and then leave them in the pose for a few minutes on the timeline. When you play it back you'll see one does not breathe. It's a pretty subtle effect though.
