Why does th eauto tracking on a mask no longer work and then when i stop it and go back a nd adjust the mask on frames and then continue, it completely messes up the mask on the previous portions of the video.

Question

I am trying to blur faces in a video, i did this 4 months ago and it was much different because of this new update. I have the mask on and then I press auto track and watch it and then stop it when the mask goes off and readjust the mask to the face and track forward by one frame until it realigns and then press auto track again and repeat until the clip is done. I then go back to rewatch the clip and the mask at the beginning of the video is completely off. I have searched everywhere for why this is not working when I did this 4 months ago and this was working fine.

As R Neal mentions, Masking has been updated with 26.0 that differs in some areas compared to previous Masking. Apologies for any confusion and we appreciate any feedback.

FYI, you can find a bit more info on Clip vs. Frame modes here: https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere/desktop/add-video-effects/create-masks-and-composites/adjust-masks-at-the-clip-or-frame-level.html

Hope this helps.
