    Hello, recording images with alpha channels that include post-processing is possible in certain configurations.
    • Which Render Pipeline are you using (Legacy, URP, HDRP)?
    • What Recorder source (GameView, Targeted camera, etc...)?
    • Could you provide a screenshot of your Recorder Window configuration settings?
    • Could you describe exactly what you are trying to do?

    As an alternative, it is possible to use VisualCompositor with Unity Recorder to record alpha channels and post processing into png files.
