You're welcome.
I don't use Quicktime, so I don't know what it needs. But other
movie/video making tools can take as input a sequence of frames. The issue
will be the format. Typically, that's targa, tiff or yuv. You would be
able to use ImageMagick convert to put the frames in whatever format is
required by the tool you would use.
You can have DX dump to separate files. You can do that in a couple of
different ways. If you want to use the mechanism of saving continuously
from the Image window to a single file, then do the following when the
network is done running:
convert +adjoin my_movie.miff my_movie-%03d.tif (or something similar
depending on the format you need).
That will create a sequence of files, one per frame, named by frame number,
i.e., my_movie-000.tif, my_movie-001.tif, ...)
Another way is to have DX do this directly. You would need to modify your
network to use Render->WriteImage (not using Image at all).
Sequencer->Format would be used to create the file name to pass to
WriteImage. This is what I do with networks for networks that run in batch
for automated movie production. I have this approach integrated in
interactive applications so that a user can set a button and the movie file
is produced or that same network runs in script mode with passed parameters
to create the movie.

Thanks for the two replies. I don't have Berkeley MPEG-1 encoder
installed in my linux box. I'll try to play it a little bit.
I noticed DX can save rgb format file with multiple images. Can I
somehow split them into separate files? I know some tools to combine
multiple images into a quicktime format movie file.
