			<description><![CDATA[[quote=martinprice2004][quote=brenden17]hmm the chroma keying feature wasn't as good as I hoped it would be. You need to make it so you can choose the color from an image or something.[/quote]

There are several ways to do chroma keying, the Key Colour method which you are suggesting is one way, (Debugmode Wax uses it)
but it is not the best, unless of course your colour is pure blue or pure green. I did try this method, but it was much worse than the one I adopted.

If you are struggling to get separation of foreground and background, try using a background that is closer to rgb(0,255,0) or rgb(0,0,255) as suggested in the documentation.[/quote]
ok I have more of a light green background]]></description>

I can absolutely confirm that this works with the QC9000. In fact it always has done since the first version. I know this because I develop the software using this camera (and others). It must be something with your setup. email me with the problems and I will try to guide you to getting it working.

There was an issue with some other editing software affecting playback functions, but this is now sorted.]]></description>
