As an additional note:
If you want to use Tracker2Mask you can still do the tracks in mocha if you don't find any good features for the AE tracker.

Just use MochaImport+ to convert the mocha tracking data into normal AE trackpoints. Then use Tracker2Mask to work with them.
If you convert transform data to AE trackpoints, MochaImport+ creates one trackpoint for each mocha track,
if you use corner pin data it creates 4 AE trackpoints (one for each corner).
I guess tracking a few mocha corner pins gets you a decent coverage of trackpoints comparably easy.

And thank you for the kind words about Tracker2Mask, Patrick :-)

Cheers,
Mathias

BTW  those two scripts are amazing.
They saved me so much pain when I worked on some Charles Schwab spots a while back.  http://vimeo.com/15978257
After trying Tracker2Mask, I wrote Matthias to say that he just kicked Imagineer to the curb. 
The ability to average multiple AE trackers with TrackerViz gives incredibly accurate results, which you can 
apply to your open splines with Tracker2 Mask.  It does what Mocha can't yet do. and all without leaving ae.
yes it can take a bit more time to do all the tracks, but the results are top notch. 
 I have not tried it yet,  but i theorized there must be a way to leverage the AE 3d tracker and the 2Dto3DScreenspace script to do something similar.
Has anyone out there tried that yet?

Hey all,

Wondering what the best solutions are to apply motion tracking data to open masks (splines).  This is mainly wanted to help in morphing/warping situations with our RE:Flex.  Note that Mocha would be a good solution if it supported open splines (which we've requested!).  

Also, using adjustment layers don't really work, because of the way that adjustment layers interact with our plugins.

Looking for global to apply motion tracking data as a transform of position, rotation scale  as well as applying to a single point.

Pete
