โFiltering and Filling Gaps in a Track โ
To produce even smoother final tracks, instead of Locking the trackers, click the
Finalize button 
. This brings up the Finalize dialog, which filters the tracker path, fills small missing gaps, and Locks the tracker(s). Though filtering can create smoother tracks, it is best used when the camera path is smooth, for example, from a dolly or crane. If the camera was hand-held, smoothing the tracker paths
causes sliding, because the trackers will be smoother than the camera!
If you have already begun solving and have a solved 3-D position for a tracker, you can also fill small gaps or correct obvious tracking glitches by using the Exact button on the tracker panel, which sets a key at the location of the trackerโs 3-D position (keyboard: X key, not shifted). You should do this with some caution, since, if the tracking was bad, then the 3-D tracker position and camera position are also somewhat wrong.
