[Joseph Owens] “I’m not sure that the current version (8.n) supports imbedded alpha… Resolve 9 will, but for now, you have to extract the A channel and import/attach it as an independent clip. Then the “alpha output” will work, otherwise, you have to build the alpha with a qualification of some sort.
“
This work around doesn’t have anything to do with an embedded alpha, strictly deals with the opacity of the clip itself.
No qualification necessary.
