| You are correct about the uneven number of frames. I animated a logo on a flag using Zaxwerks Flag 3.0.1. They introduced a "seamless loop" function in version 3. It doesn't work as advertised. Not for me so far, anyway. I spent about 5 hours trying to get my animation to loop perfectly, trying various loop points and durations. I didn't get a seamless loop when I had my duration set to 10 sec. exactly, but I did have success making it 10:01 (at 29.97 fps). So… back to the drawing board. I'll try again making it 10:00 exactly. Maybe I'll have better luck at a non-fractional frame rate, too. Rick, thank you very much for the insight.
