'jitter' as you all might know is random on a frame by frame basis, not
to be used when making animation frames you know.
If no AA there is no jitter as I understood it, but makes me wonder now.
It has the ability to be on, off, off with a number which will be used
on the next render, etc. so maybe the answer lies there.
