John, according to Chuck Baker on the NewTek BBS the Flyer does render 24
bits - not Ham 8 when using the Med. Res Preview. LW just sends the frames as
24 bit to the Switcher software which then records them to the drive. LW says
that it is Ham 8, only because it has not been updated yet. The Anim previews
always used hooks in the Switcher software and it has been updated to save 24
bit to VTASC on Flyer drives.

You don't need TPaint to do it, Lightwave will do it also. This is the only
way
we lay anims out (to tape/P.A.R., not just the Flyer). Just tell Lightwave to
use an image sequence as the backdrop, and leave all the other stuff like
antialiasing off. Takes about 10-12 seconds per frame to load them up and
write
them out as a video clip.
Save your original frames! The 3.94 beta software only writes a HAM-8 anim
file, so once the 4.0 software comes out, you'll probably want to lay them
out
again, but in full 24-bit.
