    Just a follow up on this as I have been wrestling with it on a gig today.

    Ok, here is the main solution that is suggested:
    After rendering into a QuickTime/h.264 file, open it up in QuickTime and select “Show Movie Properties.” Highlight the video track then click on the “Visual Settings” tab. Towards the bottom left you should see “Transparency” with a drop-down box next to it. Select “Blend” from the menu then move the “Transparency Level” slider to 100%. Choose “Straight Alpha” from the same drop-down and close the properties window and finally “Save.”

    Ok we know that. However, it might be incorrect. It was suggested elsewhere to NOT choose "Straight Alpha" but "Composition."
    Just worked like a charm.

    • yeah i have tried this, seems to be ok, but then doesnt hold when uploading to say vimeo
