How to set black as non-transparent?

Post by adenovirux »

Hi, all:

The question I have should be easy to solve but I just can't find the solution.
That is the black part of the image or video is automatically be set as transparent in order to blend with the sublayer. This is the common usge and it looks nice, but I have to display the black part that block (part of) the image of sublayer. How can I do? I tried several setting but they don't work.

Thansk a lot if anybody can help!!

I'm slightly struggling to understand what you mean but you need to look at Layer Blend Modes.

Try 50 Mask, Luma Key, Luma Key 1, Multiply and play with the V slider.

I think one of these will do what you want.

in the Clip Video Settings is a RGBA Button to deaktivate the color channels (RGB) and also the alpha channel (A)
so your footage will be black instead of transparent

@adenovirux: the black is not automatically set to trasnparent
(if someone wants that, needs a keyer).
Those particular clips you're playing have an alpha channel that sets the trasparency
.

Yes, you needs to turn off the Alpha Channel!
