how many frames are you rendering? at how many frames per second?

also when you are rendering a lot of frames, it is advised to save them as single images (e.g. jpg with no compression) and then use video post to create the movie clip.

Are you rendering the entire range of the animation? I'm not at home so I can't give a screen capture, but you need to make sure it's set to render the entire timeline and not just one frame from it.
