    Are you talking about the background of the video? Or the background color of the preview window itself?

    or are you talking about getting rid of the black background within the picture, to make it transparent, so that your white bottom track is revealed?

    if so, you need to have the image saved with an alpha channel (usually PNG or PSD), and access it by right clicking / Properties / Media / Alpha Channel and change it to straight or Premultiplied

    And if you are talking about the background color of the preview window: just right click on the preview window and choose for DEFAULT BACKGROUND, BLACK BACKGROUND or WHITHE BACKGROUND.
