[IDV #IEI-245645]: capture > image

Wow, that's quite a lockup.  We've occassionally seen lockups on Mac OS, but
have been unable to recreate them on our own Mac OS system.

Are you animating  when you are trying to save the image?  Do you have
just the track or the track as point data loaded in? There should be no 
difference between the behavior of one versus another that I can think
of off the top of my head.

I'm stumped.  I was going to have you try a stack dump of the program,
but that doesn't seem to work as advertised.  Let me poke around more
and I'll get back to you tomorrow with some idea.

What type of video card does your Mac have?
