Ach! I know you would not want to sound harsh (did you notice my Freudian



The phrase "you do know..." sounds much nicer than "NOW (because I'm telling
you) you know that...".
I did not see his animation as my work site would not allow me to download
it. I rendered the 500 frame snipit and it looks worse that my stationary

Nope I didnt know how the codecs worked... actually.. =)

But... basicly, if I want to have the whole background moving like that, it
should at least be textured at a higher scale, right? Or else it will
flicker. Should be worth a try at least...

Will also try Antialias_Depth=3 and Sampling_method = 2, never used those
before..

Speed Warning:-) Sampling_method = 2 can make it slower. Try it out on one
frame first.

So umm... Sampling_method = 2, is that the same as +AM2..?

The documentation says it is. (actully Sampling_Method).

Yes, I use Moray and it writes and runs an INI file with the long version of
the command line commands. Sorry for the confusion.

doing just now. I noticed last night that my settings for TMPGEnc, were too

forgotten to set them back.) This can definitely cause flickering in
stationary objects. A real *Duh!* moment :-)
