Track matte with EDIUS

[Agrapas]

Hi,

I have been trying to achive with EDIUS the effect called "track matte" in Adobe Premier, where you are able to view a video inside a moving mask (titles), and another video in the background.
i have tried it a lot using the keyers but i haven't found a solution.

Is there a trick to do this, or it's impossible for EDIUS to reproduce that effect?

I use EDIUS 3.5
Thank you in advance!!

It is very easy with version 4 where you can have alpha mattes...I cant think of a way to do it with version 3

Edius has clean key so the only way I know with 3.5 is to use the luma key, make your title white and make a new file over black, so your new file should be a white moving title over black, put that file on top of a clip that you want to be outside of the title and key out the black and make a new file, take the new file and put it on top of the clip that you want to be inside of the title and keyout the white.

I will second this. I did it this way for years with Edius and it works very well.
