Heya tl:

After taking a closer look at the streamlabs link, it looks like you'll have to go with an animated GIF with transparency.

If you render a movie from AE at Best Settings Lossless with Alpha, you can open that in Photoshop and then use the legacy Save for Web option to save an animated GIF with transparency.

I think the longest duration that PS will export with an animated GIF is 500 frames.

Ae Comp added to Render Queue with the "Best Settings" template and "Lossless with Alpha" template.

Save for Web (Legacy) window after opening movie in Ps and choosing File > Export > Save for Web (Legacy)....

Resulting animated GIF with transparency.

-Warren

P.S. If you decide you're going to create animated GIFs frequently from AE, definitely check out GIFGun for After Effects (GifGun - aescripts + aeplugins - aescripts.com).

You need to pick a format that supports alpha channels and make sure that your output module is set for millions of colors + alpha and set the color mode to Straight Alpha.

There are a bunch of presets in the Output Module. Lossless with Alpha is one of them. Until you have taken the time to study and understand video standards, color, compression, frame sizes and frame rates you have no business creating a custom setting in your composition or output module. For now, just use the presets. That is why they are there. Do not expect a Lossless with Alpha file to be small or playback with a transparent background in a media player or on the web because that file type is designed to be used in production and not distributed to the public. There is no video format that will play in a standard media player with a transparent background. It will always show up as black.

Impossible to say anything. you have not made an effort to provide actually usable info like exact settings, version info and whatnot.

Hello,

isn't it more a question of streamlabs, so that you should try all the hints in your cited link? Or - because the thread is already closed - you could open there a new one.
