Hey i am right now trying to visualize a TV screen in radiance. For a
better visual impression i have created an Imaging layer using the
colorpict material.
looking like this:

void colorpict imagin_layer
9 red green blue forestfl.pic . frac(U) frac(V) -s 2
0
0

imagin_layer trans image
0
0
7 1 1 1 0 0 1 0

when this is rendered the material is divided into small samples giving an
odd pattern.
here a picture of the rendering:

This is a picture rendering using the standard settings for the high
resolution rendering in diva, except for -ad 4096 -ds 0.15 and -as 1024.
The setup is one imported light source behind the transparent colorpict
material.  I have already tried using the ds/dj parameters without luck,
the subdivision seams fixed. Also changing the -n parameter when creating
the .oct file has not worked.

I have tried various combinations of -ad -as -ds -dj and -ps until now.
i hope someone can help.

Niko
