 The AVi generated ends up with 2X the file size. Mediainfo reports the
 bitrate as 24.4 Mbps (exactly the same as any other Matrox AVI file);
 however, if you consider the file size, the overall bitrate is 57.6 Mbps.
 Sometimes, there are also issues playing out the output files.

 Source file:

 Output:
 https://s3.amazonaws.com/vid-share-3/sampleout.avi

 The same thing happens when tested on Linux.
