This discussion brings up a question I've had for a while, and can't find in the books. When two flics are combined in Vpost, either splicing or compositing, does the pallette setting in Vpost even matter? Does Vpost re-calculate pallettes, or does it just use the original ones? If I render 2 flics, using custom palettes for both (those pallettes having been created by rendering every 10th frame with high pallette), and then I decide to splice them together in Vpost, should I set up the queue, and then render Another custom pallette at every 10th frame and High, involving both flics in the queue, and then finally render the combined flic, using the NEW custom pallette? That's pretty involved, and I wouldn't want to go through it if it wasn't going to have an effect.
