SWF files get jammed at the last frames when imported to AE

[YUVIB]

Hello everyone,

Im using a lot in SWF files imported into After Effects.

and at each and every project at least 1 if not 5 SWF files get damaged in the last 3-5 frames when they are already inside a composition in AE.

the damage can be-  "stuck" problem - the SWF stuck in the 235th frame out of 240 frames file lts stay and stuck on it.
   or it can be - character damaged, hand or a leg breaks a part from the body,

the SWF is alright , i can put it inside another project and it will be fine but in the "first" AE project it is damaged.  and sometimes i render it again from ANIMATE/FLASH and do "reload footage" in AE and it fixes the problem till next time i open the project. ect. ect.

A bunch of unbelievable and non consistent ways of being damaged. i cant even understand the problem.

Anyone here is familiar with that problem, know how to fix it, can tell me something about it?

thanks a lot.

Does this sound more like an After Effects problem?

Couple of things to try on the Animate side:

Use the oldest Flash Player setting that will work, which would be 10.3 I guess. I may be wrong, but it wouldn't shock me if AE isn't supporting the very latest SWF files.

There's a new publishing option, SWF Archive. That will create a zip file of one SWF per layer. You could at least see if certain layers have an issue in AE.
