Next: -28- When writing frames to a movie with the Movie Library, if we fix the image track parameters, does the byte size of the frame remain constant across frames?
Previous: -26- The Movie Library has calls to play a movie in a file, memory or a file descriptor. But all of them seem to assume that the complete movie is available locally. How can I play a movie all of which is not available locally?
Subject: -27- When programming with the Movie Library, can we insert
and delete frames from a playing movie?

For versions of IRIX prior to 6.2, absolutely not.
As of 6.2, editing a movie is supported while a movie is
bound for playback, and the playback instance will update
as the movie is edited, but it is NOT possible to edit a
movie that is currently playing--you must call mvStop first.
