I've gone back through the archived posts to see if this has been mentioned
previously, but didn't find it, so...

Concerning MEDIA in general, the POV docs give the following values as
defaults:  METHOD 3 and INTERVALS 10. But in the detailed discussion that
follows, it says,  "It is usually best to only use one interval with method
3. Too many intervals can lead to artifacts, and POV will create more
intervals if it needs them."

If true, shouldn't the default value for INTERVALS be changed?

Ken
