output movies below acceptable quality. moire/ripple

Hi
I've been very interested in moho as a tool for animating photo images.
There are two very LARGE obstacles that I have discovered in moho.

Numer one happens when I slow pan/zoom any photo image. There is a displeasing "ripple" effect in the final.
By contrast, after effects does not ever seem to suffer from a pan/zoom.

Number two happens when I "cut out" a shape in photoshop and import as a png or psd with transparent background. The edges can have a very strong moire effect which is represented as moving "jaggies". Again, after effects does not suffer from this.

My basic "need to know" question is this;
Is this the best that moho can do?
Should I expect more and troubleshoot? Or is that all there is?

Does anyone else experience what I am experiencing?
Thank you ahead of time for any help/advice that you can provide?

Could you post some examples?

As for 1, I've never had any problem with any material in slow pans/zooms in the rendered video.

2: again, doesn't happen to me, and I work a lot with bitmaps in AS/Moho.

Just to be sure: we're talking about rendered videos, right?

I will in a few minutes. Thank you.
Yes I've rendered files as targas, as prores4444, all give me issues. Does not show *within* moho only on final mov's
Original files (still photos) are either png or psd.
Moire only happens on edges of "cut out" images.
The "ripple" I speak of can happen on rectangular images too.

Ugh, I'm sorry, it may be tomorrow or Monday before I can post an example to vimeo. I'm over my limit for the week.
I will though. Please be patient with me
