Many thanks for the suggestion.

I have tried the following line:

"C:\Programmi\POV-Ray for Windows v3.5\bin\pvengine.exe" /NR /RENDER
"C:\Programmi\POV-Ray for Windows v3.5\scenes\advanced\piece2.pov"

POV starts but it gives an erros, as it cannot fin the file. The file is
there, and it can be lauched successfully by the WIN interface.

Can you tell me where I am wrong?
There is anyway to avoid to let the interface opened/visible, while it is
rendering?

Thanks again.

Gianluca
