Premiere Pro CS4, Media Encoder and AE

[John Frey]

Thanks for the quick response. I did render a portion of the sequence in AE as AVI Uncompressed. When I imported it into PPro, it shows up on the timeline with a black background replacing the original greenscreen. In PPro, how do I get the alpha channel to show through to the track below?

Voila! Thanks for the tip, Vince, it worked. And thanks to David for all of the quick responses. I have been editing for years with Sony Vegas and recently decided to invest in CS4 as well. I started with Premiere way back in 1995 and stuck with it until the driver issues about drove me crazy, thus the switch to the stability of Vegas. Didn’t realize what a great timesaver Dynamic Link is. So far, CS4 Premiere has been solid on my 64bit system. Am inpressed!

I can’t wait to move to 64bit – but my 32bit systems still do the trick.
