    I have a still image sequence from Lightwave 3D. The stills are TGAs and work fine in AE 6.5. In PPro the stills never show my background sky. In AE it shows. I have tried ignore Alpha checkbox in PPro= no worky. Any solutions?

    Upon further investigation, it appears it does work-one frame at a time. How do I get all of my images in an image sequence? I can only see the poster frame with an ignored alpha.

    Why ignore the Alpha. You want the Alpha, right?

    When you import the image, are you importing a numbered sequence? And they were all saved with an Alpha?

    Thanks for the reply Steve. I DO want to IGNORE the alphs- it contains the sky. In 3D programs the sky is usually created in a dome fasion and the resulting files can either be knocked out for a different or better sky(skies take a while to render) or they the alpha can be ignored to keep the rendered sky in place. I have found the solution! In PPro you have to add the Video filter Alpha Adjust and click on Ignore Alpha in the effects control list. Wierd it does not work in the interpret fooyage command. A bug methinks!
    Anyway- Alpha Adjust is the answer.
