Hello all,
Mikeihde: Yes, parenting the aux camera to the main camera is the simplest way to make a movie. This approach is described somehere and I have used it in my Poser Python script to automate the generation of the right and left view. See the following.

My script is not always working well but follows carefully the instructions if you use it. Since your are able to see in cross view, I suggest that you use the two pane views available in Poser. With it, it is possible to see directly the stereo effect.
Lesbentley: I like very much your approach of using ERC to control the Camera B. In your message, you suggested to use a toe in approach of the cameras. It is OK but that approach genereates what is know as a Keystone effectd (a trapezoidal deformation that is not similar in the two views). In some cases, this can be disturbing when looking at stereoscopic images. In fact, the focusing (toe in) toward a specific object in done during the stereoscopic post-production. The two views are superposed imitating the natural movement of the two eyes toward a specific object of the scene. In stereoscopic langage, we say that the images are placed at the stereowindow.
