I have been using PD 15 for a while and the Tolerance of Saturation, Tolerance of Luminance, and Edge Sharpness are not there in 365/19. The chroma key function feels far less forgiving than it used to. Is there something I'm missing or not seeing? I've had to go back to PD 15 just to do decent green screen effects. I could get a new screen, maybe I should but I feel like a newer version of PD should be better at it than an older version, not worse.

Some users and contributors claim that the chroma keyer in PD17 and later versions are not something that they can get used to in getting better results.

PD15 Ult. has the best chroma key function which is even better than the one in the PiP designer. The included NB pack 6 has NewBlue Chroma Key Pro. If you still have it installed then you can get much better results and then export the segment to PD19/365. You can check it in the tutorial here: https://youtu.be/V2eAqYYFDDs .

So the Newblue comes with it or is it an addon I have to buy?

**EDIT** Nevermind, I did have to purchase but it wasn't too bad.
