Is the a- or >b-param responsible for that? Or does Century do that automatically in >autoplayer-mode? Hi! No I don't believe it is the parameters, it is built in you can see some files for that if you compare it to earlier Rebels. I guess you can't remove them, maybee I should try it and see if it works at all. What is the b parameter, I don't remember Ed said anything about the use of it. Bertil
