Question Compressing Video size

OK, I'm new at this. Need help from some video experts, please

I have used Startrails.exe and virtualdub to produce some videos from jpg files. A lot of jpg files - 500-700 of them!

I produced them as uncompressed AVI files and have one 408MByte and one 604MByte! I did try to upload one to Youtube so I could show everyone, but it chunked around for several hours and then had an "upload failed" error.

I need a different approach.

Startrails (and I presume Virtualdub) will let me produce compressed videos.

I need to know what would be a good format choice - I've only vaguely heard of the formats.

I also need to know where is best to place them, to link to from here. I guess I can try Youtube, but I can also try Liveleak. But I really have to get the size down before I can upload them.

Suggestions gratefully accepted. Education will be humbly received.

Thanks all
