HuffYUV is a lossless codec, made by the same guy who brought us AviSynth. It serves basically the same function as QuickTime's Animation codec, or LZW in TIFF files, or RLE in TGA files, in that it reduces the file size as much as possible while still maintaining bit-for-bit image quality. It still requires a lot of hard drive space, but not nearly as much as an uncompressed AVI.
