Video conversion question

[andrewducker]

My phone produces .3gp files when it takes videos. They're about 90k.

I can then convert them to quicktime files, also under 100k.

I can then convert them to .mp4 files which are around 170k.

But if I then convert them to AVI files they swell to 2MB.

What the hell is going on in there that takes up that kind of space? And is there any way I can stop it?

If anyone out there fancies taking a look, the files are up in 3gp format and quicktime format.

I've tried compressing with both DivX and XVID, and that's what's producing the current size.

If I don't compress it ends up as 6MB.
