DXV 2.1 - crashes in any software except avenue

[rxfromparis]

I really dont understand this file size thread going around on DXV :
i just did a test with the latest DXV 2.1.1 codec ,
in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 i made a 5 sec file made of bars and tone in 720P format 25 fps
then exported it under quicktime animation jpeg A full quality(closest to Mjpeg correct?) size : 7.78 Mo
the same project exported under quicktime DXV, size 2.91Mo

i then used the quicktime animation jpeg A file in Mpeg Streamclip and transcoded it to DXV:
i got a 1.84 Mo file.

So, unless i made a mistake , DXV files a not really bigger then quicktime jpeg A or Mjpeg???

i compared the files in premiere vectorscope to see if i could find any luminance or chrominance differences, i a didn't find any diffences, except for detail rendering.

anyone else done some basic testing??

graphical content - like simple one colour bars, will produce a much smaller file with DXV than a clip the same length but made from film footage. the people who are not happy with / experiencing large file size are most likely using more film based footage.

Soooo true. I'm really starting to wonder about how people want to deal with video if they don't have a minimum of background knowledge. No offense Just a little advice Dig those video forums out there.
