I am desperately trying to use a video file (or even a PNG sequence!) as a reference to line up animations in the timeline. Currently, you can add a PNG sequence as a puppet, but it plays automatically and isnt synced when scrubbing on the timeline. Having a frame accurate option would give a TON of flexibilty.
What is the longest 1080p video sequence you can do this with before Character Animator runs out of memory etc? My recollection was cycle layers has a real restriction - like all the frames were kept in memory. So useful for short clips, but not for anything of reasonable length.
Can we get it to import like mp4's and formats other than PNG sequence? Seems like a hassle to either convert to png sequence or constantly go back and forth between Premiere Pro and Character Animator for things that require precise timing.
