If I update a pattern browsed clip before a render is compete (say from Nuke) - this seems to break the clip for that version of the comp, and there’s no way to refresh the clip to work for that version, or am I missing something? Happens on occasion and I need to re-import the clip to see the frames.

@ocaiden - Pattern browsed clip or pattern-based openclip?

Pattern browsed clip, not using open clips (mainly due to lack of knowledge on use case and advantages).
