>>Targa and NT… If you haven't done so, make sure you send Chuck Mitchell at Truevision [75300,3705] a (private) email with your thoughts on the Targa. >>framebuffer… Lest I mislead you, the PAR technically does have a framebuffer, but as far as I know you can't access it directly with any software – it can only display images that have been stored on the PAR drive. Perhaps a future, enhanced, PAR would change this. Since I got a PAR, I haven't done a single frame of single framing to tape. The PAR quality, even with the JPEG compression artifacts, is more than acceptable for the kind of stuff I do. BTW, you can easily use the PAR to put stills to tape (but no fancy transitions) – one easy way is to copy all the stills to a single ANI file and then use the keyboard controls to manually switch step through the frames while recording. The cuts between frames are noiseless. DPS is still promising a scripter to all make this easier. >>not really this polite in real life… That's what's great about cybercomm – you can act how you like! You may not get any help, but hey, at least no one can punch your face off. <g> JKJ
