Hmm, it should keep sending the scenelist each time a clip is moved in the timeline. I'll take a look. Oh, actually I see the problem - I am generating a new scene list on every move of the timeline, but not actually sending it :-) Ok, it's fixed in CVS now. > > The initial list looks like this: > > <setSceneList> > <scenelist> > <header> > <version major="0" minor="06" /> > </header> > </scenelist> > </setSceneList> > <createVideoXWindow show="true" /> > > > - Why is <header> inside the scenelist? It should be a seperate tag. What > version is this supposed to be? Ignore it for the moment, it is not important until we reach a release and finalise the VEML document, when it should be set to version 1.0 :-) But I agree, I am not sure if header should be in the scene list any more. Originally, the idea was that it would specify the version of VEML so that the renderer knew whether it would be able to understand the GUI or not.

Yes, I sort of expected that seeks would be piling up at the moment, and yes, it should be correct behaviour for Piave to ignore all of them except for the most recent one ;-) On another count though, I'm going to profile the code I have written for generating the scenes - I think it is taking a lot longer than it should do, and I want to find out if this is the case, and if so, why. > I am not yet convinced that this XML via loopback is the right way to do > it. Well, we are getting close to the time when we find out, I think :-) -- Jason Wood Homepage : www.uchian.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk
