  • Question on Nested VEG and Alfa Channel

    Posted by Don Cobble on October 15, 2010 at 12:51 am

    I have a Project template with 3 nested Veg Files. I would like to render out the footage from two of the Veg files and just use the rendered file INSTED of the unrendered veg so my main project would run smoother ( Its loaded with effects) My problem is when I render out any of the veg files I loose the Alfa channel areas and they come out as black. I need to render out with the alfa channel so I can use for effects. IS IT Possible???
    Thank You

    Yes it’s possible. An alpha channel requires 32bits so any codec that supports 32bits (including uncompressed) will carry an alpha channel. I like to use the Quicktime Animation codec for this sort of stuff.
