To specify which component should play when loading a version into ftrack review in external review tools such as HieroPlayer and RV, you need to set the “Playable component name” for each asset type. This is done from System settings > Workflow > Asset types.
By default, the playable component name will be “main.”
| Please note: The “Playable component name” for the asset type refers to the name of a component. |
