I don't know if I'm allowed. I'll do it if I have some extra time.

Please turn on the switch ProgressOnOneLine in your config.h.
I added that switch because on the Mac we prefer not to have newlines.
Previously the switch was MACOS but we changed that for other platforms.
Post processing is also controlled by that switch!

Please see frame.h and look for ProgressOnOneLine. There is a bit of
comment there.

And... those // comments in lathe.c are (c) Smellenbergh :-( Sorry for
that.... and then you should know that we have the switch turned on to
warn Nathan obout those c++ comments he put in. This time we send
lathe.c to Nathan before we removed those comments.

Right you are.  Updated IE to the same version number here and
all is fine.  Who would have ever guessed upgrading IE would fix that.
Thanks for the tip.

I think it has to do with the version of comctl32.dll (the common
controls library, whatever it was called).

Are you saying that you have a windows version of MegaPOV 0.5 that
will output MPEG video directly? That would be great. Could it be
ported to DOS as well?

This might also help solve the problem with animation file names that
some other people were having when using the post_processing features.


I sure hope you make your patch available to everyone else.

Later,

Same here.  Which is why I forgot to upgrade the GUI source.  Anyways, I
upgraded it (new version not ready for download yet), but it didn't seem to
fix the line of line garbage graphics in the message window.  Thoughts?

Oops.  That file wasn't supposed to get out.  ;-)  Just delete it and all
will be well.  (It was a backup copy when I was making some changes... and
yes I do use source control, but I wanted that backup copy for a different
reason.)

It should still work.  I'll look into it.  Thanks for letting me know of
this potential problem.

See the Mpeg survey in povray.animations for opinion from others.

Yes, the code came from a DOS program, originally from a unix program, I
just smooshed it into MegaPov.

Hehe... I tried some post processing with mpeg output. It crashes horribly.
If I can figure out more out the PP code, I might be able to fix it. Maybe.

> I sure hope you make your patch available to everyone else.

I'm thinking about. I posted a note in p.a and got mostly negative feedback.
If enough people want it I'll eventually put it up somewhere.
