I have many (105) Quicktime movies that were created with an Avid
Codec (which is not supported in DVD authoring) and have to be
re-exported with a current Codec that is.
The movies are 720 X 486, about 8 to 12 seconds long - are are high
motion
dancing clips.

I know that re-exporting with "None" compressor/codec will work - but
the file sizes end up in the hundreds of megabytes  .  .  .  .

My question is  - which of these 2 codecs (using highest Quality
setting):

Animation - or Photo JPEG

will give the least amount of artifacts upon the re-export - and why?

Animation at 100% is lossless.

Or - is there a better Codec to use - and why?

PNG is the best lossless codec.
