    Can Motion export .dpx files (with alpha channels) and, if so, how do I do it? I don’t have any special hardware or QT components other than what comes with FCS2.

    Howdy,

    Motion can export to EXR, which is one of the two common film formats that support full float values (DPX being the other). You could then use something else to convert the EXR frames to DPX, such as Shake, Glue Tools, AE or Combustion, though I don’t know how many of those support DPX+Alpha, which is an uncommon format.
