Hi Ricky,
as you said yourself, "lock to time" is always restoring the original speed. This is one main feature of Pandoras Box that different framerates can be handled at the same time and are always absolutely in sync. One second video will be perfectly played back within one second, not caring for the framerate.
As soon as you change the speed of a video there is no perfect timing within the video any longer as the internal information is handled differently and therefor we cannot sync onto that using "lock to time".
Running a video within "freerun" we do not get a feedback from the video how long it will need to play to the end. Therefor we cannot adjust the time.
The best way would be to rerender the video within AfterEffects or other applications to access slower speed within a fixed framerate. The other option would be to rerender without frameblending the video by just changing the fps within the video.
Sorry for the moment.
Markus
