[AWIPS #DXF-875745]: AWIPS Issues and Suggestions

Hi Tom,

I don't think we changed anything that should affect the speeds, but that's 
great if you're
having a good connection and download speeds.

Just to clarify, do you want to be able to specify exactly 55 frames?  Because 
you can request
more than 50 frames, 100 would be the next option.

We actually just updated our menu item for GFS, so now if close CAVE, clear 
caveData (see here
for how to do that: 
http://unidata.github.io/awips2/appendix/common-problems/#removing-cavedata)
and restart CAVE.  When you load GFS, it should load 55 frames (without you 
needing to modify
the frames manually at all).

Please let me know if you can see that now, and if you can clarify my question. 
 Thanks!

Thanks.
