I’m trying to render some DXV’s from Apple motion using Compressor.
I’ve got the DXV codec installed, in fact I’ve just ditched everything, trashed the library presets, and reinstalled everything.
I've created two "Compressor" destination settings. One has DXV3 High Quality "With Alpha" and one is DXV2 with "preserve Alpha" chosen
When I add a file into compressor and choose either DXV output setting everything looks ok. Digging into the codec setting shows that the option to preseve the alpha has been turned off. I can turn it back on here and it retains this setting.
No matter what I choose, the alpha is ignored when I process the files and drop the resulting files into Arena. Arena shows the files as having No Alpha.
Rendering the same Apple Motion project as an Quicktime Animation works correctly, the alpha channels are preserved.
My next project has footage over triple HD width, and I really need to be using DXV's to keep things smooth!
Anybody got any ideas? I'm stumped!
