If you are saving the frames as metafiles or hardcopies (.hmf, .tiff, .anm, ...) you can't play them with a media player. You must convert them in MPEG (Fluent can do it, but obviously the quality is poor...), otherwise you have to create a .avi animation using the .tiff frames with an external application.
