    Hi – can anyone help with track mattes and garbage mattes? Can’t get them to work! Thinking it must be me, I downloaded the Adobe files and followed the tutorial from here:

    https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/how-to/blur-face-masking-tracking.html

    So, as in the demo, I apply the mosaic effect, then apply the built-in matte. I then track a face in a street scene, as per demo, but even though still frames are fine, the video does not play back, just black. Tried to force render but again the playback is just a black screen….

    Been having trouble getting garbage mattes to work as well, can cut out shapes, but no feathering, no expansion, and it doesn’t render or playback.

    Cheers, Ken.

    Ah! Sorry – worked it out. Apparently mattes don’t show up on my system if the programme monitor window is at 1/4 resolution. Changing to half or full resolution fixed this for me!

    Cheers, Ken.
