Is there a way to drop the background from Magic?

Post by vigostar »

So, I run Magic through OBS and wanted to use Magic as an overlay to an existing video that is being used in OBS but, without the black box that typically surround the images in Magic. This there a way to do this?

Make sure "Send alpha Channel" is enabled, assuming you're using spout.

I have that option selected but the background is still showing as black in OBS. Is there something else that needs to be done?

In OBS, for "Spout2 Capture" properties, set 'Composite mode' to 'Premultiplied Alpha'.
