Rotobrush first frame issue

I'm having the same issue as a previous poster where the first frame the rotobrush is trash while the rest are great, this is especially problematic if you tweak settings like feather/reduce chatter, it makes the first frame feel like a jarring jump cut mistake. How do I resolve this?

There are no additional keyframes meaning nothing is warping due to keyframing.

HI Yash,

 

Thanks for writing in. Have you tried clearing the media cache as suggested in the thread you mentioned? What version of After Effects are you using? Are you working with Roto Brush 2.0 or 3.0?

Let me know.


Thanks,
Nishu

I have tried clearing cache but it just gets recreated the same way, using the latest AE with Rotobrush 3

Is it happening with a specific media? If yes, can you share that media file with me for testing? If it happens with multiple media files, can you share the details (frame rate, frame size, format/codec)? Also, which device was used to record that footage? Lastly, what are your system specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM, OS version)?

Looking forward to your response.


Thanks,
Nishu
