Skal,
>I have some problems with the transduction of XMT-O to XMT-A. For 
instance, tags like <text> or <excl> aren't' taken into account.
The <excl> tag will be most useful if your goal is  to dynamically change 
the MPEG-4 content while using  the XMT-O as delivery format (as in SMIL). 
 But since that was not the purpose of XMT-O, and since  the IBM toolkit 
for MPEG-4 as released on the alphaWorks uses  the XMT-O as exchangeable 
authoring format, not delivery format,   you will not find the support for 
the <excl> tag in the toolkit  (although it is a nice feature to have). . 
As for the <text> tag, you can use the <string> tag  until  there is a 
more general implementation of the <text> tag available. 
>What can I do?
You can send me a private email  with a  scenario of an MPEG-4 scene where 
you would like to use <excl>.   There may be a workaround. 
  Regards,
  Michelle

Hello!
I am trying to create MPEG-4 scenes using the IBMtoolkit.
I have some problems with the traduction of XMT-O to XMT-A.
For instance, tags like <text> or <excl> arent' taken into account.
What can I do?
Do you konw another XMT-O editor?
Thanks for your help.
Skal
