I’v done a simple animation using one looped movieclip and the rest time line animation however when I went to export it to MOV or AVI or anything but SWF the animation in the movie clip dosn’t run.  
It also dosn’t run in the timeline untill it’s published as a swf.

I think it’s something to do with syncing but I’m not sure.
