Im selecting only one layer for import, but PhotoCaster seems to be reading and rendering all the layers before it gets to the one I selected. Why?

When importing castmembers with less than 32 bits of data, PhotoCaster must pre-calculate their anti-aliasing. To calculate the anti-aliasing for a layer, PhotoCaster needs to render all the layers beneath it. If you do not need anti-aliasing or other alpha channel compositing effects, you can turn off the ‘Anti-Alias’ check box option in the ‘Advanced’ settings, then PhotoCaster will simply skip the other layers. If you are importing 32 bit castmembers, then you will not be affected by this.
