Hello,

I am using chimera alpha version 1.3 (build 2577) running in linux (sled11) to make a movie using POV-Ray.

The quality of the first few frames is stunning but thereafter becomes fuzzy around the edges of the molecule.  Is there a way to fix this so that the entire movie is as clear and nice as the first few frames?  Is there something wrong with my settings?  Is what I’m seeing an artifact of mpeg compression?

I am using the following POV-Ray settings to make an Mpeg1 movie

Quality 11

Antialias: true

Antialias method: recursive

Antialias depth: 3

Antialias threshold: 0.3

Jitter: True

Jitter amount: 1.0

Transparent background: false

Wait for POV-Ray to finish false

Keep input files: false

Thanks for the help!!

Paul
