Folks, Just a quick comment/observation on RAZOR PRO. I just received it yesterday along with the upgrade chip for the PAR. All installed just fine and it seems to handle most things without a problem. I did however experience a problem with .ANI files from the PAR. Heres what I observed: Using the Razor Library, I was able to view the files on the PAR drive, but it listed them as TGA files. This may be the way it is suppose to show them but I thought that was interesting, that is also the way DOS sees them. Next, I tried to add one of my animations to the library and used the ANI format for the search. Once again, no problem the file showed up on the Library Menu and also on my Sony Monitor as if I was accessing it from the PAR interface. The Funk began when I attempted to play the Clip from the Library Menu. It was unable to play the .ANI format. I then copied the clip using the TGA format it seemed to recognize. Once again no problems… Until I tried to view the clip which once again reported an error… The manual suggested that the application may not have access to the PARDRR.DLL fille but this is not the case. If anyone has got R. P. up and at full thottle please give this thread a twist as I have many Video Contortions planned for this weekend but I need the clips on my PAR drive.. B. G.
