Hi,

I have BluffTitler Ultimate 14.8.0.2 and I'm trying to work out how to export the following to video with a transparency.

The only layers are the default Camera and Point Light, plus a Picture layer with a world texture set to Sphere/3D in 3D Space/Single Sided.

Is there a way I can export it with a transparent background instead of black? I can't see any option for this.

Thanks.

you have to export the video as AVI with transparency.

Hi Franco,

I don't see a "transparency" option for AVI (compressed or uncompressed). I did try "Include Alpha Channel" but it didn't make any difference.

I must be doing something wrong.

Thanks,

Steve

Yes, the INCLUDE ALPHA CHANNEL checkbox in the FILE > Export as video... dialog must be marked. Alpha channel is another word for transparency.

To test the generated video, import it back into BluffTitler by choose MEDIA > Add layer > Add video layer... and place something in the background, like a plasma layer.

If this is OK, the problem is your video editor. Here are tips for Vegas:
