Overlay one video with transparency over another video

dito

Hi,

I'm having trouble setting up a sketch that overlays a video with transparency over another rolling video. The video is of a basketball game and the video with transparency has the stats of the game (a bar on the left of the screen).

What I would like to do is to have both videos playing at the same time (and firstly that's my problem). Secondly, I'd like to summon the video with transparency with a mouse click (for example) so that the stats would only be shown upon clicking. And clicking once again the stats would disappear. I was able to do this with the basketball video and with a png file (image above)...but not with a .mov file.

Is there someone that can help me with this?

Thanks in advance!

• By definition, all Movie & Capture instances are 100% opaque! :(
• But since they're also PImage, you may try to get() a copy of the upper Movie.
• Then turn all of its #FF0000 pixels into 0. Thus turning all black pixels 100% transparent! \m/
• Take a look at this old forum thread:
