Placing loaded files timeline in another timeline

So I am working on a project where I need a ton of PNG sequences which makes working with, and saving, files a nightmare. So my thought was to keep a "holder" movieclip in my parent.swf, and move the PNG's into the root timeline of a separate animation.swf file. So animation.swf is strictly just a timeline with a sequence of PNGs on it.

 

What I would like to do is load that animation.swf and stick that timeline in my parent.swf "holder" movieclip as if it was always there.

 

So to illustrate, currently it is doing this (rightly so):

parent.swf > holder movieclip > loaded animation.swf > png sequence inside

 

But I want to do this after I load animation.swf:

parent.swf > holder movieclip > png sequence

 

Does this make sense at all? Any ideas, if at all?

You're wanting to extract PNG files that were embedded in a MovieClip timeline? Is that what you're asking? Any reason why you wouldn't just use that swf's root timeline as the container in the first place? Or load those PNGs individually with LoaderMax? I'm a little confused about why you'd structure things that way.
