you can change the memory usage using the cache slider in the userprefs.

I changed the behaviour since I had the annoying problem that scenes on
the timeline got rendered for every single frame - even if they consisted
only of one frame that was enlarged over several seconds. This happens
pretty often, if you do titles directly with a scene-strip.

If there is a better way (besides always remembering to render out and
then feedback into the sequencer from disk), just let me know...

Fixed. By the way: you managed to use float-Imbufs in the sequencer????

I just ask, since I'm doing some sequencer cleaning up on my private tree.

I won't commit this directly but rather use the patch tracker, since it
changes the file structure a little bit (seperating the plugins in
sequence.c into a seperate file seqeffects.c, adding an abstract interface
to them hiding the implementation, adding float support etc.).

But if you are doing a seperate clean up we shouldn't make double
efforts... ;-) (I have no problems, if _you_ do the hard work ;-)

Greetings,
Peter
