Sounds like a Mechanisto problem. Might want to try and reanimate it.

Then I would blame it on the lack of animationable abilities in Mechanisto. Maybe someone here with experience in animating in Mechanisto can help you out.

I know it's a long way around, but you could try rendering it frame by frame and saving each as a picture then using a QuickTime application to make them into a movie (there are other programs which do the same thing, but I can only thing of the QuickTime. Can't remember the name either.)
Or I think it's actually possible (or at least it used to be), to put the frames into a ResEdit document, change the docType to PICS and the appType to something completely different and then closing it all and opening it with MoviePlayer or the likes. It will/did convert them into movies.
Otherwise, I agree, try and get hold of one of the Mechanisto "Masters" and ask them if they know.

Or, if you have the "Pro" version of Quicktime (or MoviePlayer 2.5) you can render your whole movie and then
If you do not understand or would like PICT's to help you out, I'm sure I could post one of my infamous webpage tutorials.
Or, I could do it myself, you need only send me the QT movie.
Till then,
Good Luck!
Sure, I'll send you two QTs that are messed up this afternoon.

When I try to send them to you, my computer freezes, so I think tomorrow I'll upload them to my web page and email you the link.
No problem.
Make sure your timing and your fps are the same. Mechanisto presets timing at 25 fps so you'll need to render and animate at that speed. It takes a bit to get used to...
If that's not clear, e-mail me and I'll give it another try.
PEACE YO!

I used the default settings when I animated the objects, so in the render window, should I set the fps to 25? Or do I do that in the QT compression?
Metzen, I may not have to have you fix them after all I guess.

No problem. See, all you had to do was ask the master of Mechanisto
BTW, Kwanzar, that is one cool damaged WarBird
