It is demonstrated that practical schemes can be developed for treating the hybrid time-dependent transfer equation including O(v/c) terms both stably and efficiently, and their coupling into radiation-hydrodynamical calculations is sketched. The mixed-frame equation of transfer and the frequency-dependent and frequency-integrated moment equations are developed. The relative sizes of the terms in the transfer equation and the requirement for keeping all v/c terms in order to obtain exact consistency with the energy equation for the radiating fluid are addressed. The computational approach is discussed in Feautrier variables, including a second-order formulation. Several schemes for the solution method are presented along with test calculations for an unattenuated square wave, attenuated radiation front, irradiated grey atmosphere, and velocity effects in a moving atmosphere. How the transfer equation to O(v/c) can be coupled to the hydrodynamic equations in both an Eulerian and Lagrangian formulation is indicated.
