This is described in section 12 of the preliminary PPower4 manual,
where it says:
frames will be built from contiguous depth values.

You may need to select an advance time in "Full Screen Preferences" in
your acroread. This holds at least for some Linux versions.
Select a large value for "Advance Every ... Seconds" to make sure it
will not advance automagically. Duration times seem to be not honored
otherwise.

Send them to me by separate mail, not necessarily on the list.
