How do I use the Alpha Channel in the video-post? I Don't know how to set alpha option in Flare, Hilite, glow and other ( ALPHA>0 option etc.). With thanks . Sus.

Make sure you have alpha toggled on in the Render options window.

I meant when I am using Flare.ixp or Hilite.ixp Etc. there is an option over there that I can choose (Whole Image, Alpha>0 and Alpha=0) my question was what does the Alpha>0 and alpha=0 mean and how do I use it?

Check out page 17-18 of the Image Processing manual. If the image directly above your Hilite/Flare entry is a 32 bit image w/ alpha info and the alpha option is enabled in your Options window, then Alpha>0 applies the effect to the live alpha area of your image and Alpha=0 affects the non-alpha area. Confused? Check the manual and experiment.
