  • Avid Export to QT with Alpha

    Posted by Funkyd on April 24, 2006 at 5:10 pm

    I’ve created a project in AvidFX with an alpha key. If I export this as a QT file I get exactly the file what I want; video with transparent background, but no audio.

    If I render the FX file back onto the AvidXpressPro timeline and re-export to QT I get great audio but no picture, just full screen white (…the alpha channel only?….).

    How can I get a QT with correct alpha and sound from AvidFX?

    Any help with this problem will be greatly appreciated.

    Considering it has been a few years, I’m guessing you’ve solved that problem, but based on the content of your post I thought you might have some answers to mine.

    I am using the very latest version of AvidFX and am attempting to animate graphics to specific audio tracks. I’ve successfully imported my audio and created an audio track in the composition window, but the audio refuses to play back when the composition timeline is played. When I click the ‘Solo Preview’ button on the audio track itself in the composition window, the audio plays back.

    I found an old post that suggested enabling under the ‘Preview’ menu>>’Preview with Audio’ I’ve done that and still no audio. Anything I’m missing here?

    Thanks,
    Lindsay
