Exporting animation from Paraview of an openFoam simulation. The screen flickers/blinks while recording and the output avi/ogv file is poor(screenshot attached). Looks like some graphics problem.
I work on Dell Precision Tower 7810 with nVidia k620 graphics card.

What could be the problem? What should I do?

What I usually do when creating animations in Paraview:
Instead of exporting avi or ogv file straight away, I export the images in png format. Then I use ffmpeg to create an animation. I found this workflow to be less error-prone and more flexible. Maybe this helps.

Thanks Alex,

That's a nice tweak... and it does help a lot.

Solved
