Hi all This is just a theoretical question at this point but may well get used in a project in the near future (after 12 months unemployed, I am now FINALLY working - hurrah!)...
How feasible is it to layer graphics over the top of a digital video? Up until now I've always had my movie Direct to Stage and designed a viewport into the screen to hold the movie, but now I'm looking at some kind of non-rectangular container for a video clip. I'd rather still keep the movie Direct-to-Stage for the performance boost, but I don't know of a way to place stuff over the top in that event. I've heard something about masking a Quicktime but unsure as to what this entails. Additionally, it'd be nice if the layering images were 32-bit so I could use an alpha blend over a running DV. Ambitious I know, which is why it's theoretical... Thanks and virtual beers to any and all assistants! Ross __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
