Re: [Avid-L2] export seq with an alpha

You can do it with a little trick
dupclicate the sequence, drag the alpha out of the clip and overwrite the
original with that.
Then exort twice, use AE (or another tool) to combine the matte with the
original.
(Not sure if a QT paste can do so, but i'll have a look later today)

For chroma keys, turn 'show matte'on, same appplies

One of the only reasons to miss the Accom Stratosphere.... it had that
feature since day one and I've been wishing for it on Avid since then also

Yeah. Took it back into AE and built it there. Thanks
