can’t get alpha out of Nuke…

I’m can’t seem to get a working Alpha out of Nuke.

I’ve set the Write node to Render Animation + (RGBA) but no joy. the problem is the Roto node is Outputing RGB. I have tried to add an Alpha Channel back into the comp using a Copy node but no joy….

here are the node settings

Reconcile 3d motion blur?

This is my first week on Nuke.

What I’m trying to do is add motion blur to an image that I plugged into the reconcile 3D node. I play with the motion blur knobs but it doesn’t affect the image. I believe the motion blur parameters in this node only work if there’s key frames in the 2d transform section. I do not. I have a 3d point and my camera data animating.

I 3d tracked my FG and now I want to use the 3D data to place 2d objects in my scene. I’ve accomplished this but I can not get motion blur to work.

I figured out a cheat by using the OFlow node.

Is there another logical way?
