Flame Family Known Issues (2026.2 Update)

Action Rendering
FLME-67568: Lens Flare presets do not render properly in Action scenes set to a Log colour space.
AVIO
FLME-67335: Audio Monitoring level is set to a very low value when using PulseAudio as the Audio Device, preventing audio monitoring.

Workaround: Reset the Audio Monitoring level value in the Monitoring preferences menu.
FLME-66801: When monitoring an NDI stream from the application using a third-party application or hardware, switching project prevents NDI monitoring. (macOS)

Workaround: In the third-party application or hardware, refresh the connection by de-selecting and re-selecting Flame as the NDI source.
Batch General
FLME-69107: The batch_setup_loaded python hook is not triggered as expected when adding a new version using Open Clip content.
FLME-69632: Nodes in the Node bins cannot be highlighted by pressing a letter on the keyboard if the Media Panel is displayed and one of the clips does not have a thumbnail.

Workaround: Either hide the Media Panel or set a thumbnail for the faulty clip.
Batch Media Import Export
FLME-66752: If you render Multi-Channel content with a Write File node using the versioning and Add to Workspace options, then the re-imported clip references the media files instead of the Open Clip.

Workaround: Manually import the Open Clip to the Workspace.
Batch Schematic
FLME-69825: Nodes can no longer be inserted using the Auto-Insert Node keyboard shortcut after using the Toggles Output Socket for Auto-Insert keyboard shortcut.
Cloud Deployment
FLME-62020: A slight offset might be seen when navigating the application's user interface remotely using HP Anyware and bridging the Wacom tablet over USB when the Tablet Margins parameters are set to any value other than 0% in the Input Devices preferences.

Workaround: There is no Tablet Margins support in HP Anyware, so you must set it to 0% in Flame.

1. Start Flame.

2. Go to Preferences -> User -> Input Devices and set Tablet Margins to 0%.

3. Exit Flame.

4. Start Flame.

5. In the HP Anyware client, open Connection -> USB Devices...

6. In USB Devices, disconnect the Wacom tablet and then reconnect it.

7. Go back to Flame and select your Project. You should no longer see any cursor offset while using the Wacom tablet.

As a rule of thumb, only connect the Wacom tablet once you see the Flame startup screen.
Data Management
FLME-70572: Deleting cached clips does not release available space in the Media Cache.

Workaround: Create a Colour Source clip on the Desktop and do these two things:
  • Clear the Undo Buffer in Preferences -> User -> General
  • Flush the Purgeable Media in Preferences -> System -> Storage
GMask Tracer
FLME-69810: Changing the resolution of a GMask Tracer node can cause the Mask and its resulting Matte to be out of sync.
FLME-69939: The surface keyed inside a Tracer moves incorrectly if the Camera position is animated.
Hardware
FLME-68319: The application crashes when you turn on your monitor after it has been off for a short time period. (macOS)
Licensing
FLME-65687: The Autodesk Licensing Service may not start correctly following a system reboot. (macOS)

Workaround: Enter the following command line in a Konsole/Terminal:

launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.autodesk.AdskLicensingService.plist
Media Export
FLME-66007: Content with an Alpha channel cannot be exported as RGBA when using the Export Between Marks option.
Media Panel
FLME-69454: The channel information, which is part of the clip's name imported using the Filename_Channel or Channel_Filename options, is not displayed in the clip's information window opened using Alt+Click.
Start Frame
FLME-66929: The Motion Blur effect inside Action is not working on frames numbered higher than 1048576.
Third-Party Updates
FLME-67773: Dragging an object to the bottom of the screen to delete it may fail if the gesture is too quick. (Wacom Intuos pro PTH-660)

Workaround: Drag clips slowly.
Tools
FLME-69784: Blur: Performance drops when the Defocus mode is selected. (Apple silicon M3 & M4)
Utilities
FLME-65759: The Colour Sampler leaves a feedback trail if the sampled value exceeds the window's character limit.
