I run mine through a unix emulator "cygwin" on Windows.

So if I've got several bmp directories, eg:
images/jup1bmp
images/jup2bmp
images/jup3bmp
<...>
I was processing an image at f40, so the gain was very high. I've got a fair amount of light pollution, and as I recall the transparency wasn't great either, so there was a lot of background noise.

In my searches for programs to split files, I came across a Linux program that will break an AVI into BMPs in batch. It is called mplayer. I might run under cygwin and help you to extend what can be done in batch mode.

I am trying a parallel path for processing on my Linux machines, we'll see how it goes. I will try to get XP to work first.

Thanks for the help.
