I'm not sure if this is connected to web graphics at all... if not, then
the Director areas are likely more fruitful.

Director can export animations as AVI on Windows, or as QuickTime on
Macintosh. It won't export Lingo into video, or other videos into videos,
or other tricks... there's a simple animation export to video, that's all.

Rephrased, don't try to use Director as a video editor... you can create
some video assets there, but it's not designed as an overlay
post-processor.
