Import Multiple Sequences at once not working as expected

I have this folder with multiple image sequences. When I select one frame of each, After Effects Compes up with the check box 'Multiple Sequences'. Wheb checked, the import results in 1 image sequence, and the other selected frames are just imported as single frames, not the complete sequences.

Hi @Jaydude-wb,

As mentioned by others, could you show a screenshot of how the files are laid out in the folder? @Rick Gerard is correct that the standard convention is to keep the different sequences in separate folders, but I believe your workflow is also supported. Perhaps try selecting all the files with "Multiple Sequences" checked?

 

Cheers,

Image sequences should always be in separate folders. It doesn't matter what app you are using to process Image Sequences, put each rendered image sequence in a separate folder and carefully follow file naming conventions.

Take a screenshot of the names of your image sequences
