Hi Charlie,
         To save individual time frame in your loop, the best way is to save a 
movie and let the IDV creating all the images. Before saving the bundle, go to 
View > Capture > Movie, in the Image Files section check the save Fiels to box, 
and input the setting. Then, you can save the bundle. When you generate the 
movie, 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<isl debug="true" loop="1" offscreen="true" sleep="60.0minutes">
  <bundle clear="true" file="${islpath}/foo.xidv" wait="true"/>
  <movie file="${islpath}/foo_${viewindex}.mov"/>
</isl>  

you will get those images generated.
