Importing titles from Blufftitler

Hi,

I've justed started workig with Bluff Titler and it has a lot of effects I've been looking for. Howver I'm having some difficulty getting the titles into Vegas 5 cleanly.

How do I generate the titles in Bluff so that they are on a transparent background? I read the usernotes on Bluffs website where is says to set the alpha channel to premultiplier (dirty) in Vegas and I have done this, but I still end up with a solid background behind the text.

Any tips would be appreciated.

export movie
uncompressed AVI with alpha (RGBA)
NTSC 29.97
check the "use FrontBuffer"

also under settings set to "high Quality"
under File- set show resolution= NTSC DV square pixel.

render away!

remember dont name any of your movies or files for that matter with the word "Title" in them.
Little glitch in Vegas will make it do goofy things , see other posts , do a search under "tilte" and you'll see .

If you weren't aware already.

This glitch only happens if you use "TITLE" - all in upper case! "Title" and "title" will work just fine - just avoid all uppercase.

Your right Edward, forgot that , ever since I had the problem I've stayed away from using the word. Mainly CUZ I GET CAPS stuck-on-a-vitas AT TImes.
