Richard, you asked:
>Todd - one question. At what data rate are you compressing in order to
>play from your RAM disk?

The files are running at 950 K per second at 15 frames per second, or
around 1.2M per second at 24 frames per second. The cinepak compression
does not produce "great" looking video, but it has been usable for my
purposes. What I like is how responsive it is playing from Max. I just
updated to System 8.5, and I am looking forward to seeing the improvement
with the Sorensen codec. Thanks for the tip.
