Mike, I typically pull the key with keylight, set output as a matte, duplicate the layer and use it as a luma matte. This kills most noise and chatter. Maybe it would help with your frame issues?

anybody else experience this? first frame won't key ou= t. soloing the layer shows it's keyed properly & starting at second= frame it looks fine - i deleted effect and reset, same thing. nothing hidd= en below (like a green layer) - weird!

i split the clip into layers using magnum script. also getting phantom mask= s but i think that might be because i went a bit copymask2layer crazy.
