What you are seeing looks right to me for a video with straight channels, as opposed to premultiplied channels.

A video with its alpha channel stored as straight channels only looks "right" in a compositor when used (composited), not in a video player when played in isolation.

These aren't effects. They're stock footage clips.

Todd,

Yes, you got it.  I remember a couple years ago, I always saw a perfect preview of the clip in Bridge and not the alpha channel look.

Please be more specific. What part are you concerned about, and what are you expecting?
 
Is it that you're seeing a clip with a straight alpha channel, which is only going to look "right" when used in a compositing program?

Hello,
 
I've had this problem for like the past two versions of AE and just never figured it out.
 
My adobe Bridge when I use it for the Effects Browse looks like crap.  See link:

.

Anyone know why it looks like this?
 
Thanks,
Eric
