I'm sure that it is a simple task, but I need to overlay an image sequence on top of a video capture.
I do not need to transition to another shot.
I just need to place a png image sequence with an alpha channel over a video.
I can display a title, but I must be missing some step...

Thanks for any help...

Have you tried using one of the 4 overlay channels?

@ Ed Tech

Is it safe to assume you have properly 'loaded' the "Image Sequence" as an "Input" in vMix?
(select the first image in the folder containing the sequence of images)
If so it should play fine, either with "Quick Play" like a video or as an "Overlay" by clicking on one of the overlay buttons.
If you want it tied to a specific video input, you could also use the "MultiView" feature and place it on one of those overlay channels.

Problem solved.

Thanks Ice for the input.

Turns out that my Overlay 1 had some residual settings changed from default.
After trying new approaches I hit another overlay accidently and it worked.
A quick comparison led me to the discovery of the settings change in Overlay 1.

I knew it would be something fairly simple,

Thanks vMix Forum
