MDX and Animation ?

    I've got an issue with an MPEG Animation file of my Pro/E Assembly model
    that was assembled using Mechanism connections. The Mechanism itself works
    great. So does the Animation within Pro/E. Looks and behaves exactly the way
    that I would expect it to. But when I 'Capture' the Animation sequence, the
    animation(MPEG file) only runs for a short amount of time before Real Player
    automatically exits. I'm new at this Animation creation stuff, so I admit
    that I really don't have a clue how to set the MPEG file to run for an
    extended period of time. Or at least for the full cycle of up and back
    through the Mechanism's range of motion. Right now it just goes to the 'up'
    position so to speak--then exits out of Real Player.

    Could someone out there assist me with this problem? Have you ever
    experienced this type of problem before when attempting to 'Capture' your
    Animation? There has to be some simple adjustment that I'm just overlooking
    somewhere that can make this all happen smoothly for me.
    We have to give a serious presentation to a HUGE customer next week and I'd
    like to be able to run a slick-looking animation video of my Mechanism
    assembly model in hopes of helping to win the business. :)

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the suggestion Dan. I'll try that and see how smooth it looks
    running that way.

    Regards,
