    i am struggling to use the footage. I’m trying to incorporate the footage i downloaded using keepvid into a video using Sony Vegas pro, however when I use chroma key and take away the green screen the background isn’t transparent, it’s solid black. HELP!! The attached image shows exactly what i mean. i used chroma key to remove the green screen and all i am left with is a black border.

    You need to do some further tweaking of the controls until
    the black background disappears.

    Hello Anthony. Looking at the image on the timeline it does not show that you have added the chroma key ( the FX Cross + is not green ), but I can see you have selected to Pan/Crop ( as it is green ). Is this this actual timeline you are using
