Hi there,

I have a flight simulator application producing a three channel output
consisting of centre , left and right . The left and right channels are
pfAttached to the centre thus sharing channel attributes including , I
assume PFCHAN_SWAPBUFFERS.

The problem is , often , the channels update out of sync producing a
'picture wobble' effect. The left and right channels appear to display
this tendency most frequently.
  
Is this a phenomena observed by others or am I doing something wrong.
Thinking It may be the time taken to draw a channel I have tried
lowering the frame rate and still this is observed.

The kit we are using Is a 4 processor ,2 RM, Onyx RE2 with 64MB ram.
Any suggestions to a solution would be greatly appreciated.

Ta Very Much.
