Hello there @VTS.AMW!

That’s unusual, checked around the community for any similar reports, as well as testing the plugin on my end. There are no active issue in particular with this interaction, as seen in the thread below:

> Hi everyone, I also faced the same issue in Unreal Engine 5.4. However, the problem has been fixed with the new update released on 12-05-2025 (Unreal Engine 5.5.4). Please update your Unreal Engine to the latest version, and you should be able to use Live Link without any problems.

Latest build 5.5.4 should work as intended with the plugin. If the issue persists on your side, I would suggest to reinstall the plugin.

ran into exactly the same problem today.  
UE 5.5.4, MVN 2025.0  
opened a test project in 5.3 without closing MVN - works stably((((

it was an empty computer with freshly installed UE and MVN and plugin.  
it seems that the problem remains unsolved.

Looks like it’s a bug on the UE 5.5 side that is dropping the connection.

A temporary solution has been found:

Slightly unrealted question, can you start recording in MVN and the LiveLink app on iphone (for facial performance capture) simultaneously? (ideally with a single RECORD BUTTON)?

Do you need a pro MVN license to do this?
