That sounds like an industry standard technique, which they may not even
want to -fix-... I would want an option for same-frame stereo though!
Their current method ends up making fewer frames so is more compact but
it's just not accurate stereo.

I believe IMAX and other makers of stereo movies use a similar
technique. I've heard them say it doesn't get noticed except for rapidly
moving objects.

This program sounds quite interesting. I look forward to some stereo
samples soon.
