Hi, I'm back:)
I had to take a hiatus from iClone due to an injury that didn't permit me to sit for an extended time in front of the computer but, now I'm well and I'm back determined to finish the 10 minute short film I started months ago.  And of course - straight into the next problem, lol:

I have a walk cycle that I downloaded from Mixamo and duplicated a number of times in iClone.  Works well, no issues there, but when it's recorded with live link into the UE sequencer I get a jitter in the walking cycle from time to time.  Initially I though that maybe its got something to do with the transitions between the duplicated clips, so I merged them in iClone to make it a single clip, but that didn't make a difference.  Previously I worked with my own mocap clips and never had that.  The clip in iclone is clean too and in the UE preview it's smooth also.  It only happens after the live link sequencer recording.
The recording speed/frequency is set to 24fps.  I render in 24fps and that worked for me before.  My card (Titan X Pascal) manages ca.27fps, sometimes 30 fps in this scene, so I figured that would be fine. Any ideas why it jitters?  Is it the frequency speed?

Then I got an old problem back that I simply never could get figured out.  The iclone camera has a move attached.  The move works in he preview in UE.  The move is also visible in the little frame grabs of the sequencer after the sequencer recording, but for the life of me I can't get that camera move to render no matter what I do.  I've had this issue randomly before and never was able to figure out why it was happening.  Does if have anything to do with the "Editor/Active Camera" in iClone?  That I have not live linked.  Yet, as I wrote earlier the preview still frames in the sequencer timeline do show the move after the capture, so it's got the be somewhere I figure.

Thank you in advance for any advice!
Danke!!!
