If you've imported an Image Sequence but only the first image is retained after a Collect Files, then it's a Bug. Please file a Bur Report. TIA

use AE "File->Dependencies->Collect Files" can correct collect the image sequence. i want collect the image sequence by myself.

What do you mean with "video and audio have same value"?
