Hey devs. It occurred to me today that while in Cycles mode, it is impossible to render a viewport playblast using the world background (even with "World Background" and "Only Rendered" enabled in the display properties). This is possible in BI, as shown in [1]. Currently, the viewport only renders as transparent, which is then rendered black in any standard video format. I also disabled transparency in the Cycles "film" settings, but that also does not show the world color.
My use case is when I do animatics in grease pencil, where I have a solid world background and draw in line. I then do a viewport playblast into quicktime h.264 with audio and everything works like I need to, with the exception of the viewport background. It would be great to include this option in Cycles mode, too, for the sake of continuity and completeness. Thanks!
