    I’m working on an Avid Adrenaline. I created a few simple titles in After Effects 6.5. I exported them as RGB+Alpha (millions of colors + / Quicktime). When I bring my clip into the Avid the alpha channel does not show up. Is there a setting on either system that I might be overlooking?
    –Thanks, Sunil

    Hey Sunil, Have you set your import settings on the AVID to invert alpha? As AVID sees alphas in reverse of AE.(black on white instead white on black) You also might want to try a different title format. Like maybe a .tif or a targa file. Let us know

    Hey Pearl, you’re spot on. I just had to change my import setting in Avid. Now it looks and works wonderfully. Thanks so much.
