A note on image quality and anti-flickering

In the previous release (1.5) we introduced some anti-flickering technique that greatly increases image quality in exported videos. This high quality relies on the graphics card capabilities: as a result, some more modest machines (Mac Minis) or machines with less capable cards (MacBooks)
cannot take advantage of this improvements.
To make things worse, we left a bug in the 1.5 release, where the export could eventually crash on this machine when anti-flicker was activated.

We fixed the bug.
