su podium and su animate

hi, am using su animate and su podium to make animations.. i have a problem...

1) with su animate i did make two paths.. one for the camera { which is targeted to a specific tree in the model} and one assigned to a group ( car) so that i see the car moving in the animation...

2) i made scenes with su animate after saving the file and checking the preview in which the animation was the way i wanted... ( around 60 scenes)

4) i exported sketchup quality video which was also perfect with camera and the car moving..

3) then i rendered all the scenes with su podium ( by render all scenes command)

4) after stitching the 60 images together in movie maker i made the video

5) the problem - podium rendered all scenes but in all the renderd images the group(car) is at the same place where it was in the 1st scene, though the rendered scenes had the camera moving.... can sum1ne hekp me with the same, urgent.... plz...

6) in short - if i render the 60 scenes indivually, then i do get what i want but i partially dont get when i use the command - render all scenes...

Currently render all is limited to camera movements for walkthrough animations. There is still work that needs to be done on this function. As of now render all will cause crashes unless you have a pretty fast machine with lots of RAM.

Yes, rendering each scene individually will work. Check out this post here over on the Podium Forum. The technique used was rendering each scene individually then stitching the images together.
