Update: Ultimatte Advantedge does not work with a 12 core machine. I was not happy to find that out. Ultimatte tech support said this on March 10, 2011 “It is unlikely AdvantEdge will be updated for 12-core compatibility anytime in the near future.”
I started a new search for a keyer that handles hair and glass really well. I did a test with The Foundry’s Keylight and it did a great job, I was very happy with the results. My test clip took 13 seconds to render….with Advantedge the same clip took 3 minutes and 22 seconds. Keeping in mind that the test was done on different machines because Advantedge can’t work on a 12-core. Keylight is a lot cheaper as well. Not sure if I’m going to download a free trial of any of the other keyers because I was so happy with the results.
Can anyone think of a reason why I should test another green screen keyer plug-in such as Primatte?
