4.26 Groom hidden or distorted in movie render queue

image_2022-02-10_221122

When using Movie Render Queue, my hair groom is either distorted like in the image, or non-existent (when rendered on a stencil layer). It works perfectly in the legacy sequencer render, but I would ideally prefer to render with movie render queue for the increased samples. Is there anything I can do to try and troubleshoot this?

Try unchecking RBF, in the grooms file.

Hmm, it was unchecked, tried a render with it checked just to see but got the same result

try turning off all physics, if it has any.
