Problems with opacity

[marinaemerald]

Hello! my problem is that every time i put down the opacity to 0%  on any clip the backgrounds shows up like transparent instead of black, so if i want to fade in or out it shows the white/grey pixels , even if i use this opacity tool for transitions in the middle of it you can see the transparent background instead of the black one,  I tried to put a tittle at the beggining of the timeline over the black background but is not black anymore, is transparent! can someone tell me if maybe I'm doing something wrong or maybe is a default setup that i jus need to change please.

Cheers

Hi marinaemerald,

I understand the issue. You might have enabled the Transparency Grid in Program monitor settings. Click on the Settings button(wrench button) in Program Monitor > uncheck Transparency Grid.

Please let us know the status.

Thanks,

Vidya.

By the way! is there any chance that i can change the default duration of my timeline, is set on 30 minutes but i dont edit videos longer that 5 min, so i have to zoom a lot all the time, and i would like to change that but i can find any tutorial talking about it.

Thank you!
