You need to specify two keywords to xinteranimate In the FOR loop that loads
the images into the animation - FRAMES and WINDOW. Here's a simple working
example that displays a running 40 point window of a 500 point data set:

pro anim_test
npts = 500
nshow = 40
nframes = npts - nshow + 1

pdat = sin (indgen(npts) / 5.)
window, 1, xsize = 500, ysize = 200
xinteranimate, set = [500, 200, nframes]

for i = 0, npts - nshow do begin
plot, pdat(i:i+nshow-1), title = strtrim (i,2) + ":" + strtrim (i+nshow-1,2)
xinteranimate, frame = i, window = 1
endfor

xinteranimate
end

Well, your XINTERANIMATE loop is just a bit wrong. I'd
do it like this:

; Get the Filename
openr, 1, 'E:/Temp/batch.rvd'
datas=fltarr(3,36,49,22)
readf, 1, datas
close, 1
h=rebin(reform(datas[2,*,*,*]), 72, 98, 22)
loadct, 3
XINTERANIMAGE, Set=[512, 512, 22], /Showload
FOR j=0,21 DO BEGIN
Shade_Surf, h[*,*,j], ZRange=[-1, 1]
XINTERANIMATE, Frame=j, Window=!D.Window
ENDFOR
XINTERANIMATE
END

I'd add a DEVICE, DECOMPOSED=0 to the top of the file. :-)
