Versioning:
===========
4, 2, 14, 0

Bug fixes:

Depending on display order mpeg2's could get the jaggies. Fixed.

Closed captioning for DSX frame mode fixed


Enhancements/Modifications:

Transparent graphics on mesh effects are transparent
Continuous rotate on mesh graphics
Please note that you should make the page duration no longer than the transition duration and preferably slightly less.

Transition:  	Any mesh id, eg cylinder.x
Direction:	Horizontal-continuous or Vertical-continuous
Size		not used
Duration:	Duration of transition in millisecs


Example:
<rt:transition>
  <rt:type>Cylinder.x</rt:type> 
  <rt:direction>Vertical-continuous</rt:direction> 
  <rt:size>10</rt:size> 
  <rt:duration>5000</rt:duration> 
 </rt:transition>



Flash files:

Flash files can now be played in all modes.  The dbflash.exe should be in the working directory with dbapp.exe.
Please note the following.

1. It's impossible to establish the frame (i.e. display frame) length or frame rate of an arbitrary flash file
2. It's impossible to establish the end of an arbitrary flash file with any certainty, 
3. The "setlooping" command doesn't seem to work, i.e. Flash ignores it

Therefore:

1. The page duration should be set or you'll run for ever.
2. To loop, the looping must be set in the file.  Looping by dbapp in software is meaningless and it's behaviour indeterminate.
