Late follow-up:
Had a few occurences of stray frames recently.
Win7U64 32GB, Vegas Pro 14, 20GB for scrubbing, 32bit precision, GPU activated.
FX chain using ProDAD Mercalli V4 beside other standard FX: Curves, etc.

Only if using Mercalli in GPU Mode:
Although all clips ("events" in Vegas speak) had been Mercalli-motion analysed through and through multiple times while cutting,
after lossless rendering just one stray frame occurred showing Mercalli's "Not Analysed Yet" spoiler.
Not at a clip border, just hidden in the middle.

Switching Mercalli to CPU helped: the stray frame went away.
GPU traffic guilty ? Processed Frame content not coming in time ?
One frame's worth input copied to output without processing ? Just guessing.

Besides of that, some cache management (here in Vegas) may also be responsible.
For a very complex project I had to close and reopen Vegas if Mercalli finds an already analysed event "Unanalysed",
but there the spoiler was applied across all frames of such event.
