I see at least 4 shades of green. Key each shade as a separate layer. Not even primatte could do that in one go. Roto has a dechatter.

You could also try my colorizer that pushes all green into one color for a single key

Render out as image sequence png from both sides. Import both back in and combine for media encoder

With this template, make a mask, precomp it and replace as footage. It will wb per frame automatically.

since its working fine, count yourself lucky as it sounds like you’re using one of the native supported flavors of h.264. A lot of people have issues with h.264 because it can cause lag from high cpu usuage or strange errors. I think you’re the first one to have a super fast cpu and slow hd. It’s usually the other way around!

It sounds like your hd simply isn’t fast enough for larger bitrate footage. most users nowadays for going for samsung T1’s or internal SSD 850pros or 950pros(if they have m.2 x4 support)

But in my opinion, if you’re happy then, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

you would also need a auto white balance as well.

I made a free after effects template
if you enable the text layer and scroll Gamma Clamp at gamma*10 so that the text box reads 25, it will fix changing color and white balance and shadows.

try the free 3rd party handbrake tool from your previous intermediate file. it should look good on youtube.

some beta testing i did for XAVC-S footage:

these improved my framerate by 20%:

26. set audio to 44.1 in hardware and premiere
audio pref – disable play audio while scrubbing
disable maintain pitch
audio hardware latency 200ms

disable sequence composite linear color
sequence audio settings 32000hz
sequence settings preview file 1920×1080 1/2 size video frame size 3840×2160 then 1/2 size playback

27. in monitor, pull markers together so there’s less tick marks per inch, the playback marker will go

offscreen while playing back.
