James, I had the pleasure of beta testing a Truevision program called the TARGA+ POCO TOOLKIT. It consists of a driver for Animator Pro to redirect screen output to the Targa, and a set of POCO routines for accessing Targa functions such as interlace/non interlace, genlock on/off, frame grabbing with 8 bit convertion, and live video background on/off. These funtions are directly accessable from within Animator Pro. Also included is a library of POCO routines for writing your oun routines. This file is in the MULTIVEN forum under the Truevision library files. It is called ?????????? If you do not have Ani Pro you can download AAPLAYHI here in this forum. You will not have access to the POCO routines but the driver will still allow you to play your flics thru the Targa. For convience you can shell out to Ani Pro (or AAPLAYHI) as an external program under the PROGRAMS menu via the 3ds.set file and run flics on the Targa+ from there. Maybe Gary will read this and include this ability into Release 3! <g> Hope this helps Ralph
