Oh! Sorry, 2500 is just an arbitrarily large number given to ptraj. The actual number of frames in each trajectory is 1250.
I was able to get the 1,000 frames in VMD by loading a pdb file of my system, and then loading the mdcrd file for that pdb. Before I had tried loading the prmtop as the molecule (which only gave me 189 frames for some reason). Actually, it is odd to me that loading the prmtop as a molecule, and then the trajectory for it did anything at all, because prmtops do not contain any coordinates, no?
It looks like I have the issue sorted out. Sorry for the hasty question, I appreciate the quick response!
