Probably found my own answer-Adobe Captivate. Don’t know if it exports as an AVI or MPEG, as I don’t want to interact with the internet, and all that stuff.

Hello Steve,
Thanks for your advice-you are right.
“create a movie track and then go find the movie ob your hard drive ”
How do I do that, and what does ” ob ” mean ?

Come to think of it, upon entry to Blue, it gives me a message, saying open gl is not supported.

My computer is one month old, a very good graphics card, heaps ram etc. I operate After Effects, Ultra, Cinema 4d, Ulead products, Vegas, Premiere,
Bryce, and almost every 3d-rendering program, and NLE known to mankind !! I do lots of ” powerful stuff ” with all these programs.
Stranger still, I also have just bought Boris FX – WITH NO PROBLEMS !! ( with seeing an avi ).

I cannot change my machine just because of one damn program !! Think of the endless re-activation nightmares, for all my programs !!

For a program not to even DISPLAY a avi, is probably the equivalent of having a computer from the year 1850 !! ( if there was such a thing ).

And, I have always thought that OPEN GL was generalised over-the-top nonsense.
This program holds such a gun to your head, that it won’t even display a damn avi !! Good lord. Had I known that, I would not have bought it.

Looks like I will use BLUE for ” more gentle ” work, like stills.
Gosh, now I really have the BLUES !! Ha.

Thanks from Steve.

Dave,
Thank you for your help, which is very much appreciated. I only used Ulead because it did a effect that AE CAN’T do. All I need to know is why layer 2 plays on top of layer 1 . I have tried all the blending modes etc. It’s not that.
I will retire ” defeated “.
Thanks Dave for all your help.

Thanks Dave,
My key was shot against green, and it’s perfect. My background plays thru my top layer ( the alpha clip – that’s my problem !!
