hey Carl,

I generated the test file and no subs are rendered from the subs2.mov file. I 
see the test pattern/colorbars/clock.  Instead of using a transparent PNG, 
could I instead generate an alpha channel 1920x1080 canvas directly from 
ffmpeg? I wonder if my PNG file is causing the issue?

p.s. When I say I see nothing, I mean its a black image with no text.

I wonder how it is possible not to "see anything" on a video screen...

The most relevant question from our point-of-view is if the following
command (or a variant) indicates transparency in your video:
$ ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc=s=hd1080 -i Subs2.mov -filter_complex
overlay -qscale 2 -vcodec mpeg4 out.mov

The issue hitting you may be that a flag has to be set in the mov
file or the video bitstream to indicate the type of the transparency.

Please do not top-post here, Carl Eugen
