Hi!

I desperately need to include some animation. I tried the multiinclude
as in the Beamer's users guide but I got a file corrupted message
with acroread (7.0). Any ideas?

I also tried various other things but I can't get any graphics
animation going. I would really like to have an example using
multiinclude that works. 


TIA

Here's the world's smallest LyX example using multiinclude (one slide, 
two image files, no frills).  I'll send you a zip archive with the image 
files directly, for what its worth.  No problems displaying it in 
Acrobat Reader here.  It's so simple, I doubt it will help.  Perhaps you 
should post a minimal dysfunctional example?

I am not sure exactly how to achieve this from the latex end, but under linux 
one of the best ways to add animations to a presentation is simply to include a 
link in the presentation to run a program like mplayer to show an animation 
clip.

This may not be what you want, as it is more suited for showing small movie 
clips within a presentation.

Does anyone know how to include a link that runs a system command like mplayer 
FILENAME?
