I'm trying to warp my head around colormodes and alpha channels in Jitter, esp. in the optimization of opengl patches. I've attached a patch from the examples folder that really did wonders on a patch I was working on. Upped my frame rate from about 15fps to 30fps. Copying and pasting is okay and I know it is an acceptable way to learn but I would really like to understand argb, rgba, uyvy, performance, color management and alpha channels and transparency in depth. I've been able to find some clues in the Jitter Tutorials and in the opengl examples but wonder if anyone can point me to more complete and indepth information, references and/or tutorials.
