Salut François,


Well it sort of works as far as installation/registration goes.
But then, the event has to named specifically this way:

function XSIApplication::OnBeginFrame( CustomData, RenderType,
FileName, Frame, Sequence, RenderField, Abort )
{
	Application.LogMessage( "Progress: STARTING FRAME - " + Frame + " - "
 + FileName );
}

Now when the plugin loads, I get an error about XSIApplication not
being defined. If I changed that to Application, then I don't get the
error but the event is not triggered.

Btw I changed to JScript, since the Python version was giving a weird
type error.


Thanks
Bernard
