Ok, I have an A3000/030/25MHz with an IV-24, and I am working on various 
ANIMs in DPaint IV.  The ANIMs of course are in ANIM-5 format, and I'd 
like to know how I might speed up playback (without making it jumpy).  In 
one particular ANIM I have a title scrolling from the top to bottom.  
Starting out, the title scrolls fine, but as more of it appears on the 
screen, it slows down.  Now, this ANIM is also 640x400, and has a 
palette of 16 colours.  I understand that this also will slow down 
playback, and that converting it to another format (7 or 8...I forget) 
will also make it faster.  But I'm also using AmigaVision v1.7, which only 
supports ANIM-5.  So is there a way to speed it up?  I suppose only a 
graphics card would do the trick...

Please e-mail me with any help.

Thanks.
