Check “Transparent” if you want to add this effect to the overlay. Enable “Alpha Blend” and move its slider bar to adjust the effect. You can set the transparent color.

While the preview is running:

– enable “transparent” and “use transp.color value”
– in the video window, click on the video frame on the color of the overlayed image you want to be transparent
– click “Pick up the transparent color” to select it as transparent color.
