In the encode demo, each video frame is captured from /dev/video0 and then copied (using the hardware resizer) into /dev/fb/3. Simultaneously, dynamic data (e.g. CPU load) is written into the OSD window /dev/fb/0. The transparency is set through /dev/fb/2, which is opened as an attribute window. I would like to blend an OSD layer of text with my raw video before it is captured by the V4L2 driver. How can I do that?
