I am also sometimes getting the same infinity problem with the openlayers 
plugin on QGIS 2.4 on Windows 7 64 bit. The result is that QGIS hangs and has 
to be forced closed

Subject: Re: [Qgis-user] GRASS Mask Issue QGIS 2.2

Hello again:

Perhaps there is an incompatibility between QGIS and GRASS: now QGIS produces 
"-inf" (-infinite) values for null cells, so any operation or function that 
involves al least one those cells, give us -infinite values (constant + - * / 
-infinite = - infinite).

So, as you get -inf values, then scale of values is so large that finally all 
is pink color.

I think that it must be fixed to get "null" values again, as in QGIS 1.8 
version, because GRASS works with "null" values, not with -inf... or What do 
you say, dear developers?.
Regards

Hello all:

Thanks to Carlos Cerdan for his advice.  Apparently, QGIS has some issues with 
integer rasters containing nodata values.  When the raster for masking use is 
floating point, QGIS does not paint nodata cells.  On the contrary, when the 
original raster is integer, QGIS fills nodata cells with pink color (which 
makes no sense).  The big problem/question is why even if the mask exists, 
further rasters will not have nodata values outside the AOI.

Then...
Following Carlos' advice, I converted nodata cells to zero using 
r.null.to<http://r.null.to>
Since my purpose is to compute area coverage and percent coverage for risk 
zones inside a municipality:
I multiplied the 1,0 raster layer by the integer risk_index (that is 1to5)

Then I used r.null.val to set zero value cells to nodata because I wanted to 
use r.stats to compute areas and percentages with the option of ignoring nodata 
cells.

Finally (and happily) the r.stats results were more realistic, taking away the 
area outside the "mask".
