Animated movie clip not displaying properly?

Hi all,

Is there any reason why a movie clip would only display part of it’s animation?

Here is my situation: On my main timeline is a button that calls a movie clip with animation (a simple “play” action). The animation is 100 frames long. THere are 10 layers on the movie clip. Ever 10 frames another layer fades in and stays there. The whole movie clip plays just fine. But when I test the movie only the first 20 frames (two layers) display. I know the entire 100 frames must be playing because after some time passes the animation loops and the first two layers fade in (one at a time of course) again. Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance!

you probably already did this but check all your tweens for mistakes, and also check every frame in the timeline to make sure there isn’t any unnecessary AS in them.

Yeah, everything looks fine. The whole animation works perfectly when I do a Control --> Play in the movie clip itself. It’s just when it is “played” in a Control --> Test Movie environment.

The thing is, I know it’s PLAYING the full length of the clip, just not SHOWING the full length of the clip? Weird huh?
