    Disengage the FX ByPass which you have engaged:-

    Now, what do you get?

    You’re very welcome Coen. That FX ByPass Feature is your friend. It shows what an Event looks like without an FX,and here that’s your Chroma Key “Green” Portion of your Video NOT being active – ie ByPassed. You can select a WHOLE portion of your Event or the Left or Right hand side. You can also copy to clipboard something from another part of the project and use the “Clipboard” Feature to momentarily place it on top of your Event. This is for comparisons of Colour Correction or Grading. Get to know the Preview feature-set, it WILL prove very rewarding.

    Additionally Coen, if you are doing serious keying and compositing jobs,
    investing in an alternative chroma keying plugin is advisable.
    Like BorisFX Chroma key studio or Hitfilm Plugins Chroma key filter, these
    are best of the bunch.
