  Can’t export with Alpha

  Posted by Jerel Peterson on August 23, 2014 at 2:29 am

  For some reason, I now have a computer that will no longer give me the option to export a quicktime file as RGB + Alpha — that choice is grayed out no matter what project I open.

  I’ve moved the project I need asap to a similar computer, and that one DOES give me RGB + Alpha. What could be causing this?

  First what codec have you selected? Also it would be helpful to post a screen shot of the output module you have selected on the computer that is not giving your a RGBA choice.

  Thanks for pointing it out — for some reason, the codec was set for H264 instead of animation. It’s working now.
