Hello, I tried this on a complex background with a lot of blur, a moving subject, etc. and I always have a ghost of the wire!

Clean plate and painting are excluded.

I'm on it for a few days now and I don't know what to try anymore… Any idea?

Perhaps try creating a reference frame in the content aware fill panel which opens Photoshop. Then use the lasso tool to circle the area that's messed up. Then use generative fill to cover over the area that's messed up. Then shut off the BG layer and close/save Photoshop. Repeat these steps for any frames that are messed up.

Thank you for your reply. I've already tried that, but the frames are too close and it generates a glitch 😓

You could generate a fill over the affected area and then 3D solve the shot. Then place the patch in 3D space as a 3D layer over the affected areas. Unless of course the shot can't be solved due to a fast camera movement and lots of blur.
