Whats the difference between an auto track and an auto match node?
Hey @TheMrLeoniasty, the new Auto Track node in the latest version replaces and improves upon the feature matching technology from Auto Match, while incorporating the best aspects of the previous Auto Track. Click on the question mark (?) button in the node panel to access the relevant documentation, which offers great information on how it works. Hope this helps! :)
@@ThePixelFarmLtd thank you! I tried reading the documentation but the website didn't work for me thats why I commented here since I saw the "auto match" node being used instead of the "auto track"
@@ThePixelFarmLtd I see that now I'm unable to disable auto tracks from a specific frame looking forward/backward. Also when selecting a track I dont see a preview of a zoomed in feature that it is tracking. Is there a way to bring back these things? Using the new "auto track node" feels like I lost a bit of control that I had before.
@@TheMrLeoniasty It works differently from the older Auto Track, which is why you aren't seeing the same options / controls.
Image Proxy: This was previously used to primarily increase tracking speed, but you should find the new node is a lot faster. If you need to pick features at a smaller resolution you can use the new Feature Scale parameter.
Deformation: The feature windows will deform automatically during sub-pixel refinement. You can keep a running measure of this deformation by setting the Feature Template option to Adaptive.
Consistency: This is now controlled by the Motion Prediction parameter. It can use either image motion or metadata hints to help.
Back-track and spread: This is no longer needed as the new filtering algorithm will automatically pick the longest available trackers to cover your image area as best as it can.
Blur, Illumination: The new feature matching algorithm uses an illumination independent image descriptor so you shouldn't need to pre-blur the frame or tell it to account for any brightness variations.
You can disable trackers if you need to or you can add a User Track node beneath the Auto Track node and use 'Fetch' to pull any trackers you want to adjust from the Auto Track. This will give you the control to extend, add, or adjust anything you need.
Hope this helps ;)
@@ThePixelFarmLtd Thank you! the fetch option is what I was looking for
