You can use the standard Lightwave compositing options (background and foreground), but you need to enable the alpha channel in the kernel node to see the background.

strange, not always works..also the same with unseen by camera..
Do objects need an octane material in order for this funztion to work?

I am not sure, but I think that compositing and unseen by camera should work in scenes with objects without octane materials. Can you send to me a scene with this problems?
