Hey I'm having this problem that I cant seem to solve and I was hoping someone had an answer for me. After I render out a sequence of images out a Maya and import them in to After Effects to render as a avi, I get this problem where looks like it drops some frames or plays it faster.
For example I have a image sequence of 201 frames which if played back at 24fps should be about 8 seconds ,but when I import the image sequence into AF it ends up being about 6.3 seconds. I double check all my settings I was wondering if I missed something.
If anyone has any ideas to help fix this problem that would be great

really easy to fix -
right click your image sequence in the project tab and go to interpret footage -> main -> assume this framerate -> set to 24 fps (AE is importing frames at 30 fps by some reason)
^ This is correct. After effects always assumes 30 fps unless you change the default in the preferences. You can also change it by hitting command*option*f and changing it in that window pane, which is the same thing just with shortcut keys.
