I'm not that experienced in the whole XCode thing (beyond hitting the build button and hoping for the best). I noticed that there's a variable called kRendererFPS. Should I leave that set to 60fps or lower it to something smaller like 30fps? I gave it a quick try and 30fps didn't really appear smoother. Does the Player accept comps as a command line option (or as AppleScript)? Will this solution scale as my comp gets more advanced? I plan to have the scroller placed on top of another comp.
