Thanks Chris,

yes the problem is of course when I try to capture too quickly
the images as it still renders.

But capturing images in frequent intervals is required since I would
like to capture many snapshots as my simulation software runs in
order to recreate a smooth movie out of this series of captured images.

Shouldn't this process (the completion of a rendering, even off screen)
be controlled by the Java 3D scheduler, or whatever is called the
mechanism that controls the threads, behaviors etc.

I am not using at this point any specific software to put them
together, since I am still unable to capture images in sufficiently
frequent intervals since it gives me this error.

Any other idea of how to make it work without getting this error?

Thanks
Petros
