<g> I haven't seen the movie, but it would surprise me if it did. There are several algorithms -- sudden volume boost, blank frame before, etc. Robocop would have to faithfully repeat those. I believe movies have to resort to trickery to show TV in the movie because the movie camera will strobe the TV scan and you can get hazy garbage. -- Lan Barnes SCM Analyst Linux Guy Tcl/Tk Enthusiast Biodiesel Brewer -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
