hm, not sure, I made a test here by myself.

Button to go to next cd with a visual effect:
...
put the millisecs
## go_next is in the stack script and goes to the next card:
## lock screen for visual effect
## set the effectrate to 300
## go next cd
## unlock screen with visual wipe left very slow
go_next
...
Then on the "next" cd I scripted:
-----------------------------------
on opencard
  put the millisecs into tMillisecs
  put CR & tMillisecs after msg
end opencard
-----------------------------------
And I ended with this in the msg:
1683043067873
1683043067877

Only 4 millisecs difference, but with the set effectrate the difference should be at least 300!?
So I guess "opencard" is already sent BEFORE the visual effect, at least according to the above data, right?

Molto mysterioso... :-)

Someone knows exactly?
