I long ago made a wish that would incorporate that. Mine is that
the Video Post Record be smart enough to detect when frames don't
change, and send a single Auto-Edit command to do all of them at once
rather than one frame at a time, repeating the same frame every
time. Basically, if there is a sequence of frames that:
1. Do not involve the KeyFramer Scene.
2. Do not contain any .FLCs or .IPLs or sequences of stills for any
purpose, including transitions and alpha as well as queue items.
3. Do not use any animated .IPXs (there would be a list of .IPXs in
3DS.SET that would be safe to include in a multiple batch — for
instance, VBLUR.IPX would be safe, while HILITE.IPX might not due
to the rotating hilight stars).
4. Do not contain any Fade In, Fade Out, or animated transitions.
etc., they will be counted up and recorded to tape in a single "burst" or
multi-frame Auto-Edit, rather than one frame at a time.
