I’d try setting it to 32 bit to see if that helps. And if that fails, maybe try using Media Encoder instead of rendering directly out of AE.

It's set to 8bit.

Yes. Checkerboard,  png setting, alpha + rgb.  This used to be done without a second thought.

If you toggle the transparency grid in AE do you see the checkerboard before you render?

Yes and I've tried it that way and separately as Alpha and or RGB and neither got the transparent BG.

Do you have RGB+Alpha selected in the render quo?

Hello,

I must be having a brain fart or something.  When I create a model or anything really in AE, with no BG, I thought I used to just render as a PNG file or sequence and I'd get that transparent background.  That's not happening now.

Can someone help jog my memory here?
