I have a scene where the troll points twice at his own chese and then towards the camera (you know, the you and me gesture).

Well the bvh files plays normally.  I have composed the scene in Poser and it renders normally but when I import it into Carrara it all goes well except for when the troll is supposed to point at his own chest twice..it doesnt work..it just flops a couple of times rapidly but the rest of the animation is fine.  I have tried rendering it as an avi or an image sequence with the same results.  Any suggestions?

post screenshot of troll in poser (head, shldrs, chest) that we might see how it looks
prior to animation.
