Ae to maya live link

Hi there, I'm facing a small frame rate issue. 
The goal is to transfer a camera tracking from Ae to Maya using live link, and no problems with that it works except the frame rate that changes for what ever reason.
The composition on Ae is at 25 fps and my maya (maya 2018) scene is also at 25 fps but when i use live link to transfer the camera from Ae to maya it changes to 24 fps and I can't find any solutions to fix this issue.
It's maybe just due to a small detail that i missed.

what I noticed is that when you transfer camera from Ae to Maya, you have to in Maya set the timeline to 24, then transfer from Ae to Maya, then change the timeline in Maya to whatever matches the Ae timeline.

A few ideas;

 

It sounds like you need to adjust the Live Link setting? Have you tried doing a manual import .json? What happens with that? Also, if a file exists inthe project panel, you can right-click, go to File > Interpretation > Main, to see how its being interpreted. Yiu may need to check the Ae prefs aslo to make sure its set to importing sequences at 25fps. If its set to 24, this may be affecting it.

What do you mean by adjusting live link settings ? There is no settings or
adjust-ability on live link available unfortunately.
There is no folder in the project, the import setting is also checked but
doesn't change anything because it doesn't go through an import or an
export when i want to go from after to maya.
everything in after effect is in 25 and in maya too but when using livelink
because i can't use anything else to put things in maya specially camera
track datas it turns in 24 fps weirdly
