- I've had very similar problems recently but there's really nothing you
- can do about it. When there's alot of delta in the scene (i.e. zooming
- up to your table), it takes alot of time to make an update. You might
- want to try locking the palette which I do for my DCTV frames using
- rend24. The anim file format isn't very fast as it is either.
