Hi

I want to compress avi videos which will be read into ImageJ, which supports 
the following formats:

https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/plugins/avi-reader.html

```
        • Only a few formats are supported:
                • Uncompressed 8 bit with palette (LUT)
                • Uncompressed 8 & 16 bit grayscale
                • Uncompressed 24 & 32 bit RGB (alpha channel ignored)
                • Uncompressed 32 bit AYUV (alpha channel ignored)
                • Various YUV 4:2:2 compressed formats
                • PNG or JPEG-encoded individual frames.
                • MJPG (motion-JPEG)
        • Does not read AVI formats with more than one frame per chunk
        • Palette changes during the video not supported
        • Out-of-sequence frames (sequence given by index) not supported
        • Different frame sizes in one file (rcFrame) not supported
        • Conversion of (A)YUV formats to grayscale is non-standard:
All 255 levels are kept as in the input (i.e. the full dynamic range of data 
from a frame grabber is preserved). For standard behavior, use 
"Brightness&Contrast", Press "Set", enter "Min." 16, "Max." 235, and press 
"Apply”.
```

I tried the following


```
ffmpeg -i 20200728_00019.avi -vcodec png 20200728_00019.comp.avi
```

But this gives me an error in ImageJ: "Unsupported compression: 474e504d 'MPNG' 
in line 16”

Is there a way, that I can use ffmpeg to compress an avi moc=vi using PNG 
compression, and not MPNG?

Or am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Rainer
