I had a very special problem in a timelapse today.
I filmed a dark room (telescope, full night timelapse) and then somebody switched the light on.
Now, I want this to appear in the video, e.g. I don't want to throw away the images.
But when I deflicker the sequence, Lightroom smooths out that sudden brightness change (as it should).
So what I did was a smoothing of '1', i.e. 'none', and then applied smoothing only to the bright and the dark sub sections.
However, Lightroom STILL took the bright images that came next into account when I smoothed only the dark images (and vice versa).
It would be a cool feature if there was a kind of smoothing that would only take the highlighted images into account when deflickering, NOT the consecutive images.
I can see other timelapses where that might be useful, e.g. thunderstorms.
