Rendering Scene Animation - Size?

Hello!

I am planning to render a 200 frames long scene of my Stargate and wanted the video to be in a high resolution (1024*768)... See ">Stargate<" in WIP section for project description...

I am worried about the size that video will be. Maya's videos are uncompressed first I think, and I've done a couple of videos in much lower resolution that got nearly 500MB for only about the same lenght?..

My Hard-Drive where Maya4.5 is installed has around 3 GB free space, my other partition about 5 GB, but I could clean that one up a bit...

Is there any way to render and compress the video at the same time? Or maybe I should render to single jpg's?

Best Regards
