Only the first frame of a movie clip is exported when converting to a

non-interactive movie format like animated gifs. Also the movie will be

converted frame by frame in sequence ingnoring all branching (Go To and

Tell Tagets).


You need to convert all your animation to play on the main timeline.

Convert you movie clips to animated graphics by changing their Behaviors

to Graphic and making sure they are on a layer where there is sufficient

empty frames following the keyframe of the Movie Clip (now with Animated

Graphic Behavior) to play out on the main timelinee.
