I processed a few more of the AVI's and this was the result from
the clearest one of the lot.
Any comments again would be appreciated.

You're definitely on the right track Frank,
Colour and general image is good
The detail is abit grainy, so to smooth it out you will need more frames, better seeing never hurts. You can smooth it out in photoshop if you have it..

ok will try that so..

about frames...
I usually go for 2min.
If you increased it, say to 3/4 will that make a difference in the final image?
I understand that more time = more clear frames but is that up to a point?

Cheers.
