Hi!

Does this happen when you try to publish a SWF or use the SWF exporter to generate a video file?

If your final destination is video, such as MOV or MP4, try exporting a PNG-sequence and then rendering video out of that in Premiere or similar. This is usually the best method to get 3D parallax and all kinds of other effects out of Flash/Animate. SWF export is prone to failing with many of the 'special' features.

Good luck!

Yes, it happens when I try to publish a SWF. What's a SWF exporter??

Whenever I try to export as a png sequence, I put them into sony vegas (all frames being a frame long, same framerate as I animated in), and add the music, and it's like frames are missing or something. That was last time though. Does exporting a png sequence export camera movments? I need them... and it didnt export them just now

By SWF exporter I meant their method of video export where they create an intermediate SWF which in turn they convert to lossless MOV; I assume this method would exhibit the same problems.

PNG sequence is the way to go. Check your sequence to be sure that it is intact with an image viewer. Also check the number of exported frames in the export folder.

Then, since you use Vegas, check all the settings for image sequence, the timeline and the project. I haven't used Vegas so can't give advice, but in Premiere you need to make sure the 'footage' is interpreted in a way that no manipulation is done to the frames, no 'frame blending', no field interpolation and so on.

At this stage it seems that the problem of frame mismatch comes from the Vegas project.

Hope this helps!
