Good point. Actually, you should set track_sensitive=false for that, as in Romain's detailed example. I'm curious how well that solution works. You have to realize that (with a track insensitive switch) the condition is checked several times per second (for each frame being produced), so it's a little intensive. Checking a reference (Romain's solution) is probably lighter than checking the existence of a file, which might still be light enough... > I think on reflection that the file method will suit me better. > Primarily because I can do file operations natively in PHP rather than > using exec().
