rastermon is an unknown quantity at this point
Combustion compression experiences?

Anyone use Combustion yet?
Looks cool, but all I want to do is merge our audio with the animation.
When I compress to DV-NTSC Codec with 3DSMax's Video post, it looks great.
When I add the audio and compress with DV-NTSC with Combustion it looks like doodoo. Way too much compression with "jpeggy" artifacts even though I have it set to highest quality.

I tried Combustion with no compression, and it looks nice, but its 900 MB, not to mention the movie *MUST* be DV-NTSC.

Any ideas?
I can't find an editor that will preserve the render quality.
3DSMax video post doesn't seem to have an audio track.
iMovie is a joke. Horrible resolution decrease on import.

Thanks
