Problem summary When playing stereo footage into a monitor output stream, if the stereo footage is disk cached on the timeline and the output is set to a stereo mode (eg Full Resolution Stereo), the output will be a black screen on the monitor output stream.
Note: This only occurs in stereo modes and when the stereo footage is disk cached.
Customer reported version nuke.12.0v3
Customer reported platform 10.14
Steps to reproduce
1) Import stereo footage in Nuke Studio/Hiero, and 'replace views' when prompted.
2) Drop and drag the footage into the timeline (to create a new sequence)
3) Above the timeline, select the 'Timeline Disk Cache' button, and then select 'Cache Sequence Range'
4) After the timeline is disk cached (yellow line), open the 'Monitor Output' tab within the 'Windows' menu.
5) In this new tab, set the monitor output knob to 'floating window'. This will create a monitor output using the contents of the sequence.
6) Within the monitor output tab, change the mode from 'Single' to 'Full Resolution Stereo' Result: Black monitor output
Expected behaviour Monitor output should show the stereo output when disk cached
Actual behaviour Monitor output does not show the stereo output when disk cached and gives a black screen
Workaround No known workaround, we would suggest clearing the timeline disk cache if using the monitor output stereo modes with stereo footage.
