Brett, <br>
Apologies, ive just realised your version of QGIS may not have the
processing toolbox.<br>
You may also do this by going to <b>RASTER</b>, <b>Conversion </b>and
selecting<b> Translate </b>Its the very same tool just a different
interface<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>

Hi Brett<br>
You can indeed, just use the Processing toolbox, just type
Translate into the search box and select the Translate Tool under
GDAL.<br>
The values you specified as transparent, can be specified under
the Nodata Value<br>
You can also do this as part of a batch if you have a number of
files, you wish to do this for.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
<br>
Richard.<br>
