Problem with the sequencer

Avatar
  • updated

Hello!

I found a bug. I can't figure out how to get around it. I set the camera and its settings, but when I move in the sequencer all settings disappear. I made a video to make it clearer.

What can I do about it?

Thanks in advance!

Hey welcome aboard and thank you for getting in touch!

When you add the RealCamera to the Sequence it automatically adds a CameraComponent to the Sequencer as well. Please delete this CameraComponent and only ever use the settings of the RealCameraActor. This should fix your problem. We sadly can’t stop the CameraComponent from being added and it then constantly overwrites some values like Aperture and Focal Length. Sorry for the inconvenience and I hope this solves your issue!
