LevelBP won't play Level Sequence

Hi Everyone

I’m working on a VR project and I’d like to fade in and out of black when I transition between levels.

I followed the instructions here:

and created 2 sequences, one that fades in and one that fades out.

I then added the first one to my level BP both with the Reference->Sequence Player->Play
the setup found here: Playing A Level Sequence From Blueprints - Cinematics & Media - Unreal Engine Forums

And also the way with ‘Create Level Sequence Player’.

None of the ways seem to work.

If I open the sequence and manually scrub through it, it will work in the viewport but if I have the player selected, it will not.

Anybody have any idea what I’m missing?

Thank you all in advance.

Edit: the sequence seems to be playing, since when I animate objects through the scene that works fine.
It’s the fade track that seems to be the issue.

Found the answer here:

The fade track does not work when ‘mobile HDR’ is turned off.
