  Not seeing video of clip with an Alpha channel until rendered.

  On a new Avid V8.8.3 PC setup I am having an issue with importing items with an Alpha Channel.
  When I bring in a PSD or Mov file with an Alpha channel the clip shows as black in the source window and on the timeline until it is rendered.
  In past versions you could see the image without rendering. Is there a new setting I am unaware of to have the video show?

  Just for the heck of it upgrade to 8.8.5.

  I found a few fairly serious bugs in 8.8.2, 8.8.3 and 8.8.4 that weren’t fixed till 8.8.5.
