View Profile I don't understand your problem mate. First of all, you can't create a .gif with sound in it, .gif is mostly used for lil animations with small dimensions or pictograms because of its low color base. It's purely an image file which doesn't support sound or anything else except the picture(s) itself. You should use a .swf format, which will also have a way better quality on screen.
I didn't test it but I think I can solve this. You try to read an image file .gif on a movie reader, and so that basically can't work. I never use gifs for animations, I mainly use that when I want to create small pictures on web...
Hope I helped ya.

View Profile .gif is basicly a bunch of frames.When you put them in a movie render only the first frame of the .gif will show up as a picture and you cannot add sound to it.Changing the formant should do the work, as Vazar said.

View Profile Never used pivot but here's what I found :
Newgrounds
"Okay listen close.... what you have to do is. save your pivot movie as a .gif file. go to flash. Import > what ever your pivot is called (make sure its .gif) then walla you have it... but a word of advice. dont submit it into newgrounds itll get blammed newgrounds is for flash not pivot"
So you should try to get a flash version in my opinion.

Nope. Pivot only exports as .gif.

View Profile For pivot to work on WMM you gotta copy and paste all the images onto WMM then add sound files after. Shrink all the pictures' duration to less than a second (or whatever is the lowest time it gives you).

View Profile Try this:
Save your finished anim as a GIF.
Upload it to WMM as a VIDEO.
Then sit after your computer trying to sync sounds with the anim.
I do it like that to get my music on there.
