The wait commands must list a number of frames e.g. “wait 115”. The wait command without arguments unfortunately only works with the move / turn / reset motion commands. The movie recording failed because images were not found.

Dear Chimera team,
I ma trying to record a simple movie using the following command
#!/bin/csh -f #
# windowsize 900 1094
movie record supersample 4
volume #0 style solid; wait volume #0 planes z,0,0; wait volume #0 planes z,0,115; wait
movie stop ###bitrate 5000 movie encode output my_movie.mp4 quality highest framerate 25 mformat mp4
however I keep on getting this error message:

Could you please let me know what am I doing wrong? I tried both on my laptop (MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) with OS version 10.11.6 (15G1004)) and our linux terminals (Linux sbterm 3.10.0-514.16.1.el7.x86_64 GNU/Linux)
It happens on both Chimera 1.12 and Chimera 1.11
Many thanks in advance,
