This is for Magix Movie Edit Pro 14.

I am trying to add text to a video and am using the alpha effect to texturize the text. However, when I go back and play the video after this is done the text does not appear at all. If I click on the text box again and then hit OK, it will then appear on the playback. However, sometimes it only appears half way faded. But when I go to export the video with the new text, the exported video comes out with no text at all again... How can I put alpha text into my video and have the text appear in the playback and in the exported file?

I tried exporting the video with just the alpha text and no background video at all. When I played the exported file, it had no text at all.

So I tried to export text, without any alpha effects at all, and again the exported file played back no text at all..

I thought it was a problem with the alpha effect, but it seems to be a problem with the text all together. I have made many videos before using text in this program, so this is a first. Not sure what is different or why it won't let me export text on the videos. Any help or thoughts or options?

Worse case scenario, I should be able to make text in photoshop with a green background, import it as a JPD, green screen out the background, and put that overtop the video....
