    Hello Mike

    Yes, Blender does have an alpha channel option for PNG files which I did use for rendering this sequence. I will attempt to attach one of the pngs here (and in case that doesn’t work I will email you one too). Thank you again for kindly looking at this.

    Regards

    Hi Mike

    It is a sequence of .png files (generated in Blender 3d).

    When I view it in the timeline it looks perfect – the cube sits there on top of a grey and white checkerboard background. But it plays with a black background in the preview pane, unless I put another track underneath it.

    Thank you again for your help, I really appreciate it. I wonder if there’s something weird about my setup, or if I am missing some file?

    Regards

    Jenny

    Thank you, Mike. I’ve tried Straight (unmatted) and both the Premul options, which make a slight difference to how the block looks before rendering but don’t change what happens on rendering. In all cases the video comes back in with a black background.

    Other things I’ve tried are rendering with an empty video track underneath, and rendering in avi using the Lagarith codec, but neither of those make a difference.

    Many thanks for your response

    Just answered my own question –

    File – Import – DVD Camcorder Disc

    Thanks!
