Dear Patrick,

did you know realpix?

It seems to me that you like to play images like a mpeg file.
May be you won't delete your images after building the mpeg file
then a reaplpix script is much better as a mpeg file.

We do have some idl routines to write such a script if you are
interested
give me a note.

The realpix script is interpreted by the realaudio player and you
are able to use all of it's features.
If you like you can add sound and so on.

Documentation for the realpix you get here
http://service.real.com/help/library/guides/realpix/realpix. htm

regards

Reimar
