I've also noticed this problem (or something similar) in v3.61 and 3.62. (In my
case, it was a slow-down of the rendering time per frame, during the animation.)
I don't know the cause, but try this trick (it works for me in v3.62): To start
your animation, set Subset_Start_Frame to 2 (not 1), and Subset_End_frame to
whatever. Then go back and render the missing frame 1. I would be curious to
know if this helps.
