Just an update. I also tried to export the Manipulate to AVI, and I get 
these errors:

BinaryWrite::nocoerce: 
System`Convert`CommonGraphicsDump`RasterDataPacketToBGR[$Failed] cannot be 
coerced to the specified format. >>

Here is a screen shot:

It seems may be something wrong with my Manipulate setup? strange...

Btw, exporting Manipulate to GIF crashed Mathematica.  Any one knows if it 
is possible to export Manipulate animation to animated GIF? clearly just 
doing export["m.gif",m] does not work as is, where m is the Manipulate 
expression.

I'd rather have an animated gif than flash if possible for the manipulate.
