Finally have a few minutes to play with Max 7 and am getting an error trying to load qt files using the animation codec (with alpha, i.e. million+ colors).

jit.movie: movie file unsuccessfully loaded - possibly unsupported codec

Is this codec supported in AVF? This has been my goto codec when jumping between mac & windows. All works fine in Max 6.

Just wanted to check before switching codecs.

Looks like prores 4444 is the way to go based on Ben's comment in this thread:

that is correct. if you want a codec that supports alpha channel on AVF, use prores 4444.
