Oh, you were right! It’s strange because even on my desktop is was showing as that, but it works in the streamlabs preview! Guess I need to start double checking my work in that. Thank you! You helped me sort this out so much quicker than I thought it would be, I’ve been 3 days trying to figure out what went wrong.

Ok I might have confused you, either that or you didn’t see what I see in the video? I’ll include a screenshot of what I see in the video and what it looks like when trying to render with alpha in the needed formats.

The problem is not the black/darkened letters. The problem is there is supposed to be no background, it needs to be transparent, but when I render with alpha, it either breaks and turns into this image , or keeps the background for no apparent reason depending on the format selected. Sometimes both.

Ok you’re going to have to break this down a bit more for me. To say I’m “novice” to this would be a understatement, I’ve been using AE for about a year on and off so I offered to make it for him. I’ll attach a png with the glow animation and a example render of how it breaks.

The format I rendered the example video in will only open in media player classic, I had to use that format to get it under 100MB to upload.
