Hello,

I am trying to make a simple animation using a large number (~3000) of tecplot 
2D slices (each slice is a tecplot file). Each slice is a snapshot of a flow 
simulation..I have a couple of simple python calculators in the pipeline apart 
from annotations.

I have two questions:


1.      The issue is that Paraview creates the animation for around 1600 slices 
when it is a matter of simply rendering the images but this reduces to ~ 1000 
when there are pipeline operations (like my python calculator). After updating 
to the screen, each time-step, it freezes at a particular one and continues. 
The playback looks good from timestep 1 to 1600 and after that (i.e. 1600-end) 
there is no more motion (picture frozen to time-step 1600).



2.      What is the best way to speed up rendering this animation? I enabled 
multicore (in version 4.0) but then the rendering takes twice the time. Would 
appreciate any advice on what the best way to do this.


I've tried offscreen rendering as well as an older version of Paraview (v 4.0) 
but no good result. I am using v 4.3.1.

Many thanks,

Sandeep.
