save it to AVI and save it to both files(I don't know the name but there are three little bubbles and one says something, another says a different thing, and then there is an option for both)

image, antialiased, avi uncompressed . to see good results
and make sure its named and saved to a directory.
you have to effectively do that twice in the boxes shown below,
though the second box gets the info from the first automatically.

Well this depends on many things. There are many betas, and the final "magic 1.0 version" is not out yet. Version 0.95 is quite buggy (personal experience :) ) and version 0.97d beta is a... beta. nightwolf: what is your version?

i've noticed that the blue line is a small part of the compressor window that should appear, but it doesnt. ;/

Try downloading version 0.97d from here: http://www.anim8or.com/download/preview/index.html
It has a lot less bugs. It's more stable than 0.95, I hope your problem will be solved.
