Black radial wipe in Media Encoder, even with white solid background

[cgresham]

I have a comp with a white solid background and also white in the comp settings, but Media Encoder keeps rendering a radial wipe in black. The AE render cue renders the white backgorund properly in white. Anyone know what is going on?

Update: solved the problem, though I am still curious as to why it works this way.

Turns out I had the radial wipe adjustment layer placed on top of a layer with a looping texture overlay. When I moved the wipe below the texture it rendered without the black.

Hope this helps somebody. And if anyone knows why this happens I'd be curious to know. Cheers 🙂

Thanks for sharing your solution.  You can bet there's someone searching the internet right now with the same problem.  

I find transitions on Adjustment layers to be unpredicable.  Will is apply a wipe to the layers below or wipe the adjustment layer on?

Impossible to understand your problem without any actual screenshots. From layer styles to blending mottes/ matte modes there could be anything at play. And ultimately it becomes the question why you would even apply a wipe to an adjustment layer of all things, when it's generally better to pre-compose and apply it as a whole.
