Let us know how it works, Bob. I don't have time to test it myself right
now but would like to keep the option open for later use.

It works well for me: 0.9 Meg at an average rate of 7.5k/sec , about 2 minutes.
So, I wish you a better luck.

I can confirm that Png files can be used. However, like Dick, I cannot seem
to find a suitable setup if there is one, and which also can play the
resulting M2v file back correctly in MS Media Player 6.4 (or another mpeg
player). I've tried most every feasible way to run the encoder so
somethings eluding me still. I'll keep at it until I drop it due to
frustration because the Png format is nice to use directly. Afterall the
animations do play, just strangely and without loopability.

Gain in quality and better playability perhaps, not exactly sure. The file
sizes of Mpeg-2 always seem quite large by comparison to Mpeg-1 from what
I've seen. Don't know if that is settings related or not. Oh, and Mpeg-2
can have sound added I believe is the main difference.
The thing to look at is the FAQ:

A lot I know! Thanks, didn't think so at all before. Just read some of the
Mpeg FAQ because I was wrong, explains it pretty well there (but not why I'm
wrong so much).

This is a problem i have. Some people get crappy access to my place.
Usually if you have poor routing to povray.org, my site will be painful.
(povray.org sits on T3s in Hartford, CT and buckosoft.com is 2 hops behind that)
Plus, i am on a 64Kb line behind that, which is fine for lite duty, like J. Gimbert
got 7.5KB/s from me which is my top end.
You probably timed your download to coincide with the 178 lurkers here who downloaded
that program in the first 48 hours it was up. (430 downloads in 2 weeks).
Too bad nobody has replied with a success story for using it.

I thought so.

You can probably blame me for that one :)
I posted a link to your site on the povray.org links page within 19 min.
of your announcement.

Yeah, i noticed that. :) I was briefly confused because the referrers are for the
povray
main page; (what!? a link from www.povray.org??) But i decided that is because
povray.org
is framed (which shows a browser bug in the referrer). But most of the first 2 days
refers
were of the news:// variety.
Actually, i purposely didn't link to it from my _own_ site to try to get a little data
on
the newsgroups lurks; but you blew that metric for me. ;) After i noticed your link,
i
had to throw a little text on the page asking someone to share if they figure it out.
