That's the hit.  Thank.  I remember when I first started playing with povray
(a whopping 3 weeks ago or so) I skimmed over that part thinking 'I'll look
into that later.'

Didn't make the connection in relation to this problem.

One thing though - it occurred to me this would make the value of the
'stretch' dependant on the number of frames being rendered in a set - true?

Also, I'd be glad to post the code if anyone is interested.  Is there a
particular newsgroup specific to code postings of this nature?

Again, thanks....
