playback of quicktime movie with alpha channel
May 11th, 2009, 3:12am
 
hello,

i'm using the JMC video library, attempting to playback a quicktime movie with a valid alpha channel and getting strange results: either the alpha channel is entirely ignored, or the video frames are like 'piling up' on each other.

i've tried the trick of using the very same video file as a mask,

Code:

image(myMovie, 0, 0);
myMovie.mask(myMovie);


but no luck.

any clue how to get around this one?
will appreciate you advice!

thanks,
P.
