levels and wipe don't render in media encoder in the newest versions

The levels effect and the wipe effect which I use a lot in my project have stopped rendering in media encoder.  Here is a project the reproduces both in a nice simple way.

I previously used wipes all the time to crop an animation but be unaffected by motion.  I could use a nested sequence for each one, but it would be a lot.   It would be nice if we could make track mat or masks optionally unaffected by motion or transform on an asset… then I wouldn’t have ever done this ;-)

The work around for the levels is to use Lumetri Color… which seems to be better supported.  Just broke stuff all over my ancient project I started in 2002 ;-).

    Does direct export from Premiere work OK?
