Frank, It was me that mentioned the "slow-motion bug". But, it was a one time effect that never reared it's head again. I agree with you that the slow-mo has quality problems. I tried it on a 20 second scene. Took about 12 hours to render. The people in the scene moved at a nice slow rate, but when the camera panned, forget it. The scene just looked terrible. The only good way to use the slow-mo effect is with a camera on a tripod and absoluty no camera movement. Frank, maybe you know, does the Mac Quadra 950 run that much faster than the Amiga 4000. I am able to do excellent slow-motion on the AVID in less that a minute for a scene that runs about a minute. Very fast rendering. Maybe AVID will forget that I have the system. I hope, I hope, I hope. Fred
