bart at max (also BITter)

Hi, a small problem but i don't get (around) it.

I have searched the forum but haven't find a good simple solution.

many small jit.gl.videoplane's with still images with alpha (channel) mask

The many small jit.gl.videoplane's with still images (.psd and or .png files) cut out with alpha mask move around on top of the big jit.gl.videoplane with video. Simple, so everything works, except the alpha masking.

blend_enable 1 and tried all the possible blend_mode's possibilities but no victory.

Please help, i can't get it and get crasy because this has to be simple.

Try using depth_enable 0 and specify the rendering order with the layer attribute.

I have also been looking for a way to do just this sort of thing. THANKS!!!! I had no idea you could combine videoplanes in this fashion.

Thanks, this helped me out too. I didn't realize that videoplane had an @layer attribute.

Thanks. I have already get it working properly whitout @layer attribute.

Solution: alpha channels in .psd file format are working good and with @layer attribute better.

Very smooth images. Play with the @blend_mode attribute. I use the default 6 7 now.

Hi There, I am having a similar problem...

I have looked in the above patch and used bits of it. Good stuff.

Problem I am having though is I need to blend/not show alpha so that I can create my kaleidoscope. Here is what I have so far... I want to be able to fill the whole screen with these kaleidoscopes.

If you want to shrink the kaleidoscopes, you can use the scale attribute in jit.gl.videoplane. If you want to change the shape, you can use an alphamask. Is that what you meant?
