Summary | 0000471: Track alpha channel problem | ||||
Description | The alpha channel of the tracks does not work as before, this can confuse new users and create serious problems for veteran users in their projects. In this case I have been able to solve it with the sum, but I think that this step was not necessary before. Watch video. https://streamable.com/otd98i | ||||

Thanks to IgorBeg for figuring this out. | |
Thank you very much @IgorBeg, you have just solved my problem, because in this case Cinelerra works perfectly and the problem was an error caused by me. Playing with video settings I changed the color space, later Cinelerra when creating new projects makes use of this last color space, without Alpha channel, and I did not fall into this until you have quoted it. So in this case the bug is me and not the application. I was using an RGB-FLOAT color space and not the RGBA-FLOAT I think that Phyllis can close this thread, and thank goodness that it does not have to me at the reach of its hands, because I deserve a good tug of ears. Thank you very much for your collaboration Igor, you have found the solution. |

Thanks for the screencast. Can you confirm you are using Cin_20200630, please? (to know what Cin_release you are using: Settings-> Preferences-> About tab, and see on the left-bottom corner of the window) Can you check the "Color Model" setting in Menu-> Settings-> Format...? You must have a Color Model with Alfa channel as YUVA-8 or RGBA-8. If your "Color model" is with A(lfa), try clicking on Apply button. |

I checked this, and the background is not turned on. The error occurred since I updated Cinelerra a few days ago. It also happens with a completely transparent png icon, putting it on a higher track does not reveal what is below. I have solved it by deleting the .bcast5 folder, after deleting this one, it has worked properly again. It seems that some configuration of the Cinelerra_rc file creates an error in the new projects from the new version, if you open a previous project it works fine. I emphasize, it is only when a new project begins. Thank you very much for the interest @IgorBeg I have made a video for you to see the error. https://streamable.com/2drdsy |

Hi @RafaMar, may be that in the Title effect there is Background checkbox checked with an image loaded in the field background path? Can you check, please? (Cin_20200630) |

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QenPvEZ2Jsgo0FpuvO4QJAfIiVjAbeH6/view?usp=sharing Here is another example file with the _rc file giving the error. When I restore this folder in my home, the error occurs again. If I delete the .bcast5 folder and create a new project it works fine, but the file created with this error still malfunctioning. |

This is strange behavior that I do not yet understand but will see what I can figure out from the attached xml. | |
To solve this error I had to delete the .bcast5 folder I've lost all my custom settings, but now the alpha channel between tracks seems to work again. I am attaching a file created with the error where if you put a background on a track and above it a text, for example, the text is not transparent. These are things that waste a lot of time, today I wanted to make a video tutorial and the day has gone by trying to solve application problems. bad_alpha.xml (8,331 bytes) |
