Having some troubles rendering a little animation.

I've selected the camera i wish to render from in Render Globals but when i do a batch render, it keeps rendering the perspective view out instead.

I did frames 172 - 360 (last bit of animation) and it rendered out properly, but i can't manage to get 0 - 171 from the camera.

this is usually what happens when you import a camera... Maya tends to disliked that for some reason. In your render globals, do any of the camera selections available say "renderable" or anything of that nature?

that's the problem, then. You're going to want to delete that camera. Or, if you can't find it, you can take all of your objects and textures and export them to a new file.
