Yes, the encoder is another process (which is in turn reading raw frames from yet another process). I'll test my pipe code in the encoder; I'm doing it differently from in the 3D program going to the encoder.<div>

<div><br></div><div>The whole point of this code is that, in Windows, reads from open files (including pipes) can only be done synchronously - i.e., as a blocking read.
