         Posting for a colleague...
         
       An instructor (James Pomeroy, Art department) at our university
       is using Videoscape 2.0 to create an animation for a show in
       Chicago next week.  He is having a problem.  He can create the
       animation and play it fine in lo-res.  When he plays it back in
       med-res (Videoscape Video Res, 320x400) using both Playanim 4.2
       or Director the animation plays fine to begin with, however
       about 2/3 of the way to the end he gets broken ghosts
       (fragments, possibly color chaff?) in the images that stay on
       the screen even when the animation starts over at the
       beginning. 
         
       The frames are done on a black background with monochrome
       images and the anims are 48-100 frames.  He is using an Amiga
       2000 with 3MB of memory to create the images.  The playback
       effect is present on A500s, A1000s, and A2000s. 
         
       If anyone can offer any solutions it would help our favorite
       machine to make a good showing. 
         
       Mail to me will be printed and given to James ASAP or you can
       call him at (817) 273-2891 (work) or (817) 261-7558 (home) and
       he will call you back.
