How do you take a project and export it to a raw avi? Sorry , I've just never done it...Thanks

Render as - Video for Windows (*.avi).
Choose the desired template.
That's it.

Mike thanks, so if it is rendered as you stated how do I hand it to someone who wants a raw file, burn it the same way I'm guessing?

Do not use DVD architect or other authoring program for the burn of this file.

You want to burn a data CD or Data DVD, not a DVD-Video. Use Nero, or Roxio, or the windows native burn capabilities to write a data disc.

If too large for DVD (over abt. 4.3GB), which is easy to do with uncompressed, you need to transfer it over to an external hard drive and hand off the drive.

If the handoff is to a Mac user, the drive needs to be formatted to PC format by the Mac (don't format in PC). This will erase all data on the drive.

Yep, I wasn't even close, thanks Seth..
