    Hi
    I’m using Boris Continuum Complete 3 with Final Cut Pro HD
    I’m using BCC3 Chroma Key effect on a video clip.
    I need to then export the video as a .mov file with alpha channels.
    When I do this my .mov file is missing the bottom half of the movie.
    Only the top half of the frame is visible.
    I’m working in a PAL set up.
    when the playhead is paused on the FCP timeline my external monitor displays only the top half of the frame aswell.
    can anyone help me with this problem?
    cheers

    I am having the same problem. When I get to the office, I am going to try applying the filter directly to the clip in the timeline instead of the viewer. Let me know if you find another answer.

    This filter doesn’t like anamorphic timelines.
    If I apply it to the same clips but keep it in a 4:3 timeline I can edit and composite.
    But still haven’t been able to export with alpha channels.
    Let me know if you find a way around this.
    cheers
