render as tiffs instead of iffs then you wont have a problem. iff's are maya's own format that othert programs wont necessarily read.

£ÉGOT it.!
the composite software can import that image series into the film.
this is a composite software's question.not the maya's .

I doning a practice about compositing maya particles into the video taken by dv.
a scene of a human burst out a fireball.
