Hi Emily, I reverted some changes to vtkAVIWriter so that this will use the old MSVC codec which has been problematic for some, but the change hasn't been part of a binary release yet. If you use ParaView 3.8 you should be able to save as avi. Alternatively, 3.10.1 is attempting to use a better codec called CVID. If you install one of the various codec packages on the internet containing cvid that might also solve your problem, assuming you can install software on your machine.
