Yes, i have tried it this way. The hard thing is to do an animation of n
frames which covers the complete track with acceleration.
This is no easy task and i have put it on queue and rendered this animation
with 4000 frames for better speed. And i am doing an animation with
stere-effect for red-green-glasses. The tests with red-green-stereo look
great ...
