I know about that although i had forgotten it for the moment. Thanks for
mentioning it.  Anyway the most important problem stays, i.e. the program
takes at least some seconds to load and therefore it's not really useful
to start it again every time.  

As already mentioned a GUI Extension offers very nice possibilities for
this (you could render scenes in a already running version of WinPov this
way). I did not have luck getting it work in the past, but i did not try
very hard anyway...
