Hi Roland

Rerendering everything i Animation CODEC, instead of just converting the existing QT PNG, solved the problem.

Thanks for you time, to bad QT PNG doesn’t work properly, it seemed like a great format.

[Rune Månsson]

Nope, switching to QT Animation yelded same result.

hi Roland

Thanks for your quick reply. The resolution of the footage varies, since it has been cut to fit that actor inside. but they are between 400×800 to 800×800

I’m not working with proxies since the files are relatively small as they are.

The resolution I was talking about was the viewport resolution (Full/half/third/quad), when I turn it down to quicken the viewport render, the alpha is dumped. Layer quality is untouched.

I’ll try to render the sequences with QT Animation, to see if that helps.

Oh and, the footage contains no effects and openGL is disabled.

the image should look like this, with the background on:

Hi Eddie

That’s the problem! When I say ignore alpha, the image is still displayed without a BG.

The semitransparent parts of the image, eg the glass, respons correctly and turns off the alpha, but the 100% transparrent areas are kept transparent even though I told PPro to ignore the alpha.

If it works on your worksstation, I’d like to know what version of PPro you’r running.

I tried the 8bit pr channel. Same problem.

[Rune Månsson]

Indeed.

Dang, that’s annoying. Well thanks for the quick reply.
