Actually, the plugin can export AVI files. It's been unsupported for a long time and probably doesn't work any more, though. -- To open/save video files, you could try using the APNG VirtualDub mod with the APNG plugin.

Right-click on one of them and select properties. If there's an unblock button click it and do this for all of them.

The source code for the current version isn't available. The code you downloaded is probably for an older version.

Try it without the slash. e.g. C:\Program Files\Paint.NET\PaintDotNet.exe untitled:C:\image.png

Forgot about that, I've changed the update blog post to note that the fix is only for APNG. Should be simple enough to fix for AGIF, though.

Updated with new Animated Image

Window Clippings somehow opens the captured screenshot in Paint.NET as untitled. If you contact Rick, he might be able to help you do this. If someone runs the plugin, they've presumably created a new image for that purpose. No. I'm not the one that would delete it, but it would be a shame if it was. Yes, plugins are often blacklisted in updates, but that wouldn't stop you using it yourself.

A better option might be to write it as a separate program that opens the screenshot in Paint.NET (which is what Window Clippings does with its Paint.NET integration). Or write it as an effect that draws the screenshot onto the canvas, which isn't perfect but better IMO. Accomplishing it with a FileType plugins might get your plugin deleted:

Try running this.

Updated with new CustomBrushesMini.

Also, is the resource draw when just running PDN or just after launching CBM?

@Sarkut: If you remove all brushes except a few, does it work (not suggesting that as a solution)?

Updated to v2.0

Updated with new CustomBrushesMini

Okay, I think it's fair to say this is pretty-much dead. Unless anyone has any objections, I will remove support from future versions of my plugins and make the repository read-only.

I have no plan to do that. If I did it would probably be released as a separate plugin.

It won't appear under effects. When you save an image, it will appear under the list of formats.

You can zoom in/out using the slider on the left.

Make sure you rename it to .agif or .apng before opening. If you want to see the animation, open it in Firefox (it should animate whether the extension is .gif/.png or .agif/.apng).

That's a known issue. If you click OK the animation should still be saved.

That looks better. It would also allow people to search for "*new*" in the list.

You might have been clicking on one of the ads. All the actual download links say "pdn" or "paint.net" on them.
