Feed it a sequence of images, and it will run them forwards, backwards, continuously f or b, f+b repeatedly, at whatever frame rate you want (up to the max your X will handle). It does tend to make your server grow (since each frame of the movie gets its own pixmap in the server). On a good display, it really looks nice. -- =Spencer W.
