Thanks Mike. Yes, that is the option I thought of - resize the jpg files. But, manually, all 700 or so - anyone with ideas for a batch process? I'll go googling for a method.
I was hoping that a compressed video format would be the way to go. I don't know nothin' about codecs etc. Startrails offers the attached options? Any that I should try? That produces something I can play in Win Media Player and upload to Youtube?
EDIT:- Googling done. This looks promising:-
