@Art-Munson It's hard to know why you're having problems, is it your Intel Arc or Smart Mask 2.0, 🤷♂️
Smart Mask 2.0 is a long way from being correct, it isn't even at the BETA stage as far as I'm concerned, Analyse only takes moments so not sure why you're having problems, but Complete masking can take a long time & put heavy demands on the most powerful of PCs on this forum, eg. 10mins to create masks for an 8sec clip 😒, some with lesser machines reported hrs. & even after all that there's no masks created that can be corrected.
This FX shouldn't have been included & most def shouldn't be advertised as a working fx.
@Art-Munson I might have sounded a bit unfair, I do still think this fx shouldn't have been released yet but it does sort of work, Like I say i don't know why you're having problems, maybe it'll never work on your PC for some reason & I'd hate to think what it would be like on a lesser machine than mine, (specs in Signature). So maybe don't give up on it yet...
Is your project the same size as your media? Most masking effects need this to be so, Pan/Crop can be set to 'Match Out Aspect',
Here I used a 10second 640x480 clip on a 1080x1920 project, 11mins to create the mask, Match Out Aspect chosen in Pan/Crop but I got a keyframe wrong at the start, that's my fault, I left that in this video just to show why there was a problem,
See how the screen goes black for a moment when analysing, this could maybe crash other's programs🤷♂️
@Gid So sorry for the late reply, I got sidetracked with other projects. Thank you for the very informative video. I will study the video and work on this some more. My output aspect is set correctly.
I much appreciate the time you have spent on this!
My oh my. Reading through some other threads someone mentioned turning off the GPU for a bug free 315. That prevented the crash. It's a start so I will see where this leads me.
Played around with this some more. Got it to work by disabling the GPU but a 6 second clip was going to take 30 minutes so I bailed. Definitely not workable for me on my system.

100% agreed. 10 second clip gives ETA of nearly 40 minutes. Looks like I won't be using AI SM 2.0.
