Render Visible every Nth frame; Alpha the rest?

[PizzaTime]

Hello,

Is there a way I could take a clip and re-encode the whole video again, but make everything except every Nth frame transparent? This would be helpful for a clip I'm working with. As I would use it to overlay over the original clip and edit from there.

Hybrid does not support encoding to any format that support an alpha channel.
+ I never needed this, so I have no clue how I would even go at it.
Vapoursynth has support for alpha channels, but I have never really tried using them. So I got no idea how I would even do this.

Ps.: When writing a script to combine two clips like you want, I would probably use animate and Overlay.

Okay. Thanks for the info, Selur!
