So I tried to use a different setup but i still have the same problem.
In this case I have just a simple emitter, trail and hair object.
As you can see in the live view each hair has different tonality (the look I'm going for) but in picture viewer each hair has the same color.
Thanks!

Hi sorry for delay,
Hair data capturing is little tricky in plugin. LV cannot reflect the exact uvmappings and final look of hair strands. Reason is that sdk don't give any render data out of VideoPost rendering. So what's the solution? You should trust to Picture Viewer output not LV for Hairs.

EDIT: found a bug on uv's of hairs. It's reverse on direction of x. But this is not related with you situation. Emitted hair doesn't generates a uv value for our data capture method. I'm looking for a solution, but cannot be possible
