Yes, I could help ofcourse, but wouldn't this be just a fix just for 
pdflatex/movie15 postprocessing? What happens if you import the .u3d 
straight into a pdf using Adobe Professionnel? Is there by the way any 
software to visualize directly a .u3d file?

There is another issue with the 'MOTION' resource in the idtf file
This is the original one:
           KEY_FRAME 0 {
             KEY_FRAME_TIME 0
             KEY_FRAME_DISPLACEMENT 0 0 0
             KEY_FRAME_ROTATION 0.5057303 0.69191486 -0.41868728 -0.3003194
             KEY_FRAME_SCALE 1 1 1
           }
           KEY_FRAME 1 {
             KEY_FRAME_TIME 1
             KEY_FRAME_DISPLACEMENT 1.169039E-7 -6.9596204E-8 -2.1710136E-7
             KEY_FRAME_ROTATION 0.5057303 0.69191486 -0.41868728 -0.3003194
             KEY_FRAME_SCALE 0.9611686 0.9611686 0.9611686
           }

I need to reset this (I have automated this with a python script) to:
           KEY_FRAME 0 {
             KEY_FRAME_TIME 0
             KEY_FRAME_DISPLACEMENT 0 0 0
             KEY_FRAME_ROTATION 0.5057303 0.69191486 -0.41868728 -0.3003194
             KEY_FRAME_SCALE 1.0 1.0 1.0
           }
           KEY_FRAME 1 {
             KEY_FRAME_TIME 1
             KEY_FRAME_DISPLACEMENT 0.00001 0.00001 0.00001
             KEY_FRAME_ROTATION 0.5057303 0.69191486 -0.41868728 -0.3003194
             KEY_FRAME_SCALE 1.0 1.0 1.0
           }

i.e. no scale change and a very tiny displacement. Combined with 
movie15-autoplay this gives the desired effect. Bob, is there a special 
reason for this change in scale? and if I am right your displacement is 
not always the same, sometimes it is really important.
Can we actually remove the motion resource? I admit that I do not know 
anything about idtf.
