Hi everyone, I've run into the same problem with the Ae Roto Brush a few times now and it's more or less making it impossible to use the tool at all;
Whenever I finish rotobrushing a video clip and go back to the composition window, when I change anything in the composition that somehow triggers the Roto Brush to completely restart the propagating process, which can be very time consuming. Those changes don't even need to be something related to the rotobrush, even stuff like adding a text layer or just looking at a different part of the compisition can trigger this to happen.
Has anyone had this same problem?

Hello, my fix was to use Rotobrush 2 instead of 3, and use shorter clips. After the initial rotobrush (first outline) I move frame by frame (cmd/ctrl + right) to make sure the outline stays in tact. After a few frames I'll press space. Then freeze after one loop

If anyone still has this issue, my fix was to change the format of my clips. I converted the mp4 clips I had to prores, did the rotobrush work again and voila - endless propagating stopped.
