Noob question. I'm tearing my hair out. I exported an FBX with geometry from PFTrack, imported it to Houdini, enabled background image and loaded the relevant clip. The clip shows up in every viewport, fine; but when I want to look through my PFTrack camera all I is get is grey. If anybody could help I'd be most grateful.

Shot in the dark, but I've had issues with some camera values being improperly exported with the pftrack –> houdini module. I have a bug report in with them on this. Anyway, try outputting a cmd file too, take a look at it. The focal length and aperture should be correct. My guess is the fbx route is outputting zero for one of those parameters.

Moar fbx mojo.

Cheers,
