QuickTime Pro exporting image sequence with the frames in the wrong order?

[adam-tl]

I am making timelapse films. I am using QuickTime Pro to export an image sequence as a movie file. I have all the images in a folder named numericaly. I go file>open image sequence click on the first image and import. The images are in the correct order in the source folder I have also checked the resource files under show movie properties and they are in the correct order there.

I then export as a QuickTime movie file at 1080p H.264 the film is stepping and the frames are out of sequence in the eported movie file.

The frames are in the wrong order. Instead of 1,2,3,4,5,6..., pairs are swapped, 2,1,4,3,6,5. Every now and then (every 90 frames) there is another error in the order. A mostly fixed version is attached. Frames 65, 155, and 245 should still be swapped with the frames before them.

Why is this? Has anyone come across this before?

how about a screenshot of your export settings? i've never seen it happen, but it looks like you are creating interlaced bottom field first video.
