...and when you darken the glass the effect will get more too...

I just uploaded a 1 MB 400x400 pixel anaglyphic version  (for
red/green or red/blue glasses) to

http://home.pages.at/ducke/tmp/CubicSpaceDivision3D.avi

I tried different players. MS MEdia Player works best and nearly
without jerking...

If you are interested I will upload a hires version tomorrow...

...As the subject says ;-)
you can get it at

http://www.divx.com

For decoding purposes get the standard version!
Don't install the ad supported version (GAIN trojan)!

My case is resolution problem. I could see your work but in form of slideshow
rather than nice anim. But the way you posted is wrong in general, because of:
  1. non-standard resolution
  2. commercial not standarized codec
  3. platform limited container format
I would suggest MPG next time. MPG is well (often hardware) supported, widely
used, suggested in this group, ISO codec/format
http://www.mpeg.org/MPEG/starting-points.html#mpeg

Is there a faq available for the POV groups?

CSD definitely has to be a square format...
So I should have chosen 120, 240, 480 and so on?

The (co)dec is free and commonly used. More and more standalone
players also support this format.
I decided to use it because IMO DivX gives the best video quality if
compared to other encoding methods (still waiting for theora)

In general it's OK for me to make mpegs when it is commonly used here
and other formats make problems.
I just didn't know...

There is whole group about it.

You mean square area with animated image. Wide screens on 4:3 has black margin
above and below animated areas. Good encoder saves black areas without
increasing file size much.

> >  2. commercial not standarized codec

I browse web and this server from company. I use company machine, company net
and company time for it. I create animations for company. Can I use DivX in
company according to http://www.divx.com/divx/licensing/ ?

> More and more standalone players ...

Players support codecs installed on machines in standard way. And as it stated
in this thread Windowses by default does not support DivX. I recently upgraded
my home machine to XP and P4 and I _really_ wonder if I should install DivX
there. I want to create stable installation for next few years (I had previous
P2 on stable Win95 for six years) without presure to install every new release
of codecs.

> ... also support this format.

Yeah, and they come after ten years for payments like SUN did.

I was reffering to ".AVI".
