Did you ever find an answer to this? I have the same problem but for removing dusts spots. Roto tracking would be absurd as it changes each frame, I just want to make an alpha subtraction each frame where the dusts spots are to a blurred (dust removal filter is blurry) layer below…. Also if I were hand coloring frames I’d want to use an adjustment layer for tweaking, it seems like seeing where you’re drawing is essential to using the paint tool for anything useful at all!

So yeah, you ever find a solution or just the roto option?

Compressor actually is outputting the same thing as motion it seems, however it seems that everything is one frame short when rendered with compressor.(possibly a flaw of natress G gilm dissolve transition?)

that aside, can someone direct me to a detailed explanation of how to bake and replace footage while maintaining handles?

If I drag the clips on my sequence to a new bin then batch export it all with compressor to bake, I would like to replace what’s in the timeline with those speed baked clips. But since the ones on the timeline are speed adjusted it’s all different lengths etc. Maybe this can be done by aligning timecode from the sequence on the baked clips so I can keep handles without going crazy re-syncing audio?

I know someone out there must have solved the bake and replace workflow, but I can’t seem to find anything useful!
