Really loving the automatte - well done autodesk. even realising that its perfect place is probably in G mask. Its also very fast. however really need to be able to define the active region with a mask rather than a box. the box is too limiting. also some controls to fine tune the matte would be good - maybe have three levels of speed - slowest being the most thoughtful and accurate. I think if its going to stay in g mask then you need to add the ability to Gaussian blur the mask within the node. nice one flame.
when I say fine tune the matte I mean fine tune what its looking for
I think there’s a limitation with ML tools that they need a square area to analyze. So even if you could define the region of interest with a mask/spline it would still process behind the scenes with a box that covers that area.
Also in case you didn’t try yet… you can keyframe the region of interest.
I thought that might be the case. oh well!
If you already have a mask (for the region of interest), have you tried using that mask to cut out the image (i.e. comp on black), and then feed this into AutoMatte with a square ROI? I know it’s an extra step, but would remove all the clutter that may get in the way.

good call. I will try that
