>> I've configured the M.E. to dual display with the Vibrant drivers and two things happen: screen cursor movement causes a ghosting effect where nearby parts of the M.E. interface appear to show through, and the NTSC display monitor renders with a band of active snow about mid screen. << I get the same cursor ghosting when I use the Targa+ drivers for AniPro. If/when I use the Targa+ for the ME, I select the framebuffer button, and just get the little squares with the test spheres/boxes rendered on my NTSC monitor, I don't get the entire ME. Are you running your Targa+ as a single screen setup? I've never attempted that. >> I'm not running QEMM, and the whole memory management issue still escapes me. << I know what you mean. <g> You definitely need one though, I assume you are using EMM386? >> I'd like to output about 150 Megs worth onto video tape without such obvious tearing. << I believe AniPro loads flics into RAM…? I've had pretty good luck going straight to tape that way, though not at 30 fps. Otherwise, Nik answered most of your questions. If you need to, I could put your flic to my PAR and output at whatever frame rate you need. Write e-mail if interested. Paul S.
