ok, did another export WITH deinterlace checked, replaced the previous footage with this new clip, and when i went to the first Roto’d clip in the timeline i got the Roto mismatch error again, but this time reversed: instead of the error saying my 23.976 clip needed to be 47.95 it said my 47.95 clip needed to be 23.976. however, this time it did not clear my roto info on the clip and seems to be rendering fine (fingers crossed.)
