To work around this regression, one can save the animation as PNG
images and then use ffmpeg to create the AVI video:
$ ffmpeg -f image2 -framerate 5 -i wave_anim_test.%04d.png \
-vcodec mjpeg -pix_fmt yuvj422p -qscale 3 wave_anim_test.avi
I am adding this hint to the bug log, so that other users may benefit
from the workaround, while waiting for a proper fix in paraview...
