Hi, What I've found when exporting from Final Cut Pro, is that the only codec that keeps the alpha channel is "Animation" when using Millions of colors+. Anyone found another one? If you want to mask according to a color of the image (like chroma keying), you can use either [pix_coloralpha] or [pix_ chroma_key], depending on what you need. Don't forget to put [alpha] somewhere in the chain to enable alpha blending, and be careful of the rendering order (gemhead number), because objects drawn earlier, even if in front will not blend correctly.
Cheers, Andrés

is it possible to mask videos with GEM ? I tried pix_mask, but it doesn't work with videos (at least, with .MOV videos in linux).
