[vtkusers] h264 compression with vtkAVIWriter

[imran khan]

I run into the following error when I try to use the vtkAVIWriter

ERROR: In ..\..\IO\vtkAVIWriter.cxx, line 173
vtkAVIWriter (0FDA7C18): Unable to compress test.avi

My code works fine for the default "msvc" codec.

writer =  vtkAVIWriter::New();

  w2i=vtkWindowToImageFilter::New();
  w2i->SetInput(renderWindowROI);//the render window
  writer->SetInputConnection(w2i->GetOutputPort());
  writer->SetFileName("test.avi");
  writer->SetQuality(2.0);
  writer->SetRate(2);
  writer->SetCompressorFourCC("h264");

  writer->Start();

I am running in 32 bits windows environment. Would appreciate any insights
into getting
this to run.
