hi, because im relatively new to maya, my questiom might sound stupid: i want to render my scenes (static/dinamic) but with all the quality options i've tryied i didn't got any movie like quality output. (i'm redering using Maya software - AVI file - production quality)
I assume that using Mental Ray the ouput will be real-quality ? but i don't know how to "export" those files into a avi or mpeg format.

thank you user added image

You should render to a file sequence like image001.tif, image002.tif etc..

You can set this up in the Render Globals.

When you are done rendering your image sequence, then you should import them to a compositing software like Premiere, Avid, Digital Fusion, whatnot .. and then make your AVI or MPEG there ..
