Just FYI, we've found a work-around for now: 1. uncheck the 'read from file' in the camera; 2. re-check the 'read from file' to update the camera with the correct data; 3. uncheck the 'read from file' again; 4. LEAVE IT UNCHECKED to prevent it from getting out of sync again.
Why this works, I don't know... but it does. It would still be nice to learn why the alembic camera doesn't pickup properly in the first place though.

The alembic camera in nuke doesn't seem to update to the correct position for the frame in several situations: 1. Just clicking around on the timeline, the camera position stays at the previously selected frames position, or a few frames behind where it should be. 2. When flipbooking, the camera movement seems to lag behind 2 or 3 frames where it should be. 3. When rendering, the camera movement seems to lag behind 2 or 3 frames where it should be. More Info: - I'm working in PAL (25fps), and export the camera from Maya in world space. - The maya MEL command I use to export is: AbcExport -j "-frameRange 1 100 -step 0.25 -stripNamespaces -worldSpace -root AbcExport -j "-frameRange 1 256 -step 0.25 -worldSpace -root |CAM:camera -file c:/temp/exportCam.abc"; - The nuke python commands I use to create the camera are: camera_path = 'c:/temp/exportCam.abc' c = nuke.createNode('Camera2', 'file "%s" read_from_file True' % camera_path) c.showControlPanel() c['frame_rate'].setValue(25) c.hideControlPanel() If anyone has seen this issue before, or has any ideas on where I'm going wrong here it would be a great help. All the best, Adam Dent
