    I need to export a video clip with an alpha channel fur use in Flash. I have used the chroma key to remove the green screen, but am not sure what I need to do to preserve the transparency on export.

    any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

    Export using the animation codec with “Millions of Colors+” turned on.

    Export QuickTime movie – select Custom Settings. Change the compressor to Animation. Select Advanced underneath it and change Millions of Colors to Millions of Colors+.

    Hi, did you ever figure out how to export once you’ve made the greenscreen transparent? Thanks.
