AE Content aware tool doesn't do the job

[AndrewTheGreat]

I just don't get it. I've don tens of videos with Google Earth Studio Earth animations and never ever had problems with deleting Google's watermark via AE Content Aware Fill tool. Never! It always does the job though there's the Earth with all its complexity... Today is my doomsday! The tool does not do even the simplest thing - deleting the waremark on a BLACK background... I tried using the tool on an exported video, as well as on an image sequence with a jsx-script file. Doesn't work! There's always a crappy filling inside even on a black background. What has changed? My intire system and software are the same for 5 months.

Have you tried to use the object option under fill method? It is supposed to work better on moving objects as the surface method is best suited for static elements.

Actually it was set to OBJECT

Maybe don't delete the watermark as it's there for a reason. That is a legally questionable thing to be doing. And, by "questionable", I mean, it's illegal.
