title: How can I slow down .avi files when creating them from Mathematica?
body: <p>I have created a list of plots that I want to run as a movie. </p>
  
  <pre><code>list11 = {pic0, pic001, pic01, pic02, pic05, pic1, pic2, pic5, pic10};
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>First I created an animation which I slowed down to 1 frame per second using the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ListAnimate[list11, AnimationRate -&gt; 1]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I now wanted to export this to an avi file so I tried the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Export["periodic.avi", ListAnimate[list11, 1]]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However the result of this was a movie that played too fast (I think it was playing at the default total duration of 5 seconds rather than the 9 that I wanted)</p>
  
  <p>I then tried to export the list directly:</p>
  
  <pre><code> Export["periodic2.avi", list11]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This however went even faster again (the whole thing was finished in about 1 second)</p>
  
  <p>Looking in the help files it said that there was an advanced export option called "framerate", so I tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code> Export["periodic2.avi", list11,"framerate"-&gt;1]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But this just gave me the exact same output as the previous .avi file (it seemed that the framrate option was completely ignored because I tried different values instead of 1 but the output was always the same speed).</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone enlighten me on how I can control the animation speed of the .avi file?</p>
