    Thanks very much Dave
    Much appreciated, it looks a lot better now….
    When I think back I decided to go with the straight alpha because I had used the starglow effect and it didn’t look good after rendering premutiplied.
    I’ve dropped the effect and the premultiplied render looks much better…
    I think this will work.

    btw any new tutorials coming from you in the near future ??? would be nice, thanks again

    Hi there
    I’m still not sure what to do, please advice.

    I made some textgraphic in Photoshop CS, sqare pixels and all.
    Then I imported the layers into After Effect 6.5 as a comp.I animated it and added a few effects. nothing to hot I think just a lightsweep effect, some level adjustment, some fastblur etc.
    All the composition I made in AE where square pixels.

    I rendered my final comp using animation codec, millions of clors +, rgb plus straight alpha, field rendering even lowerfield first.

    Just to check things I import the quicktime render into Avid Free DV. Importsettings : Maintain, square; RGB;
    Invert existing alpha; Even (lowerfield first.

    Somehow it looks a bit funny. wht little red dots wher is supposed to be transparency. It looks a bit like opening a QT with alpha in the quicktime player, since it is not capable of ‘showing’ an alpha channel.
    I’m not sure at what stage things go wrong….
    Is Avid Free DV capable of handeling an Alpha channel or not

    I’ll be glad to hear from you again.
    Best regards

    btw. I’m working on an Apple G5. PAL format.

    maybe a linear wipe expression ‘driven ‘ by audio keyframes ????

    also look at Dan Ebberts’ motionscipt.com for some inspiring stuff.
