I can't believe I've been two hours stucked on this. I suspect when I find it out, I'll realize I was misunderstanding something essential to Fusion compositing.
I'm trying to make a graphic (not realistic) super8 movie film strip to present some old family footage. You know that cheesy look ( :
-I comp one frame on a small background, then cut a hole on the alpha for the sprocket.
-Then merge that over a 5 frames height background with wrap on, so I get 5 repetitions of the frame. Animating vertical transform, due to the wrap setting in the merge, I can simulate an infinite film.
To end the filmstrip layer I add some text on margins and texture (keeping the sproket alpha using Atop operator in the merge). Again, merging in wrap mode to get the infinite effect when moving vertical.
So now I have a 700x4000 layer simulating an infinite filmmstrip with internal sliding animation. Perfect.
Now I want to merge that over my background, just a thin filmstrip crossing my background, but here comes my problem:
I can only get a final comp with multiple filmstrips, repetitions covering the scree, as if that final merge was in wrap mode too, but no, it is in CANVAS mode, I expected it to insert ONE fimstrip, a thin band crossing the screen. But it's still wrapping.
Here is the example scene:
