Subject: Keylight noise

I'm getting a good key in Keylight, but it's changing the color on my foreground (keyed) layer, and adding very big blocky noise.  

This seems to only be happening to colors that have some green (the keyed out color) in them, such as an aqua / turquoise sweater.

I found a workaround, which isn't the greatest, but seems to work OK.  Use Keylight to generate a luma matte, using Show Combined Matte. 

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Jim C.
