Hi Gunther,
Hoping you can lend a hand with this problem, it's been driving me nuts all day!
I am getting really annoying (non-camera) flicker on a 600 frame holy grail sequence. The first part is perfect, great transitions on my first few exposure jumps (.1 EV each time). The problems start when the sky starts to go dark blue, just after the golden contrail disappears with the sunset - around the 8 second mark. In addition, there is a jump up in exposure just after all the flickering – I can't explain this either as I've spent a lot of effort making sure my LR star adjustments are continually going down in exposure along with the natural decline in light.
Here's what I've tried, to no avail;
1) Processed all jumps manually using my copy of LRT 2.3.2
2) Tried above with no reference frame set (thought that may be causing the issues).
3) Tried the sequence (200 frames shorter) with the LRT3 evaluation app using the new HG process… the resulting flicker is identical to my manual work.
4) Tried using the deflicker option with no positive effect.
I've double checked all my tediously produced work in LR and all the ** and *** frames are as exact as possible, especially around the darker blue sky where all the problems are.
Any ideas what could be causing this flicker or what I could do the alleviate it?
Please let me know if I can provide any other info to help. Cheers.

btw. Nice work on LRT3, the new grail system seems to work as good as I could do manually, but saves a ton of time. Very clever stuff. Will most definitely be upgrading soon.
