Setting the quality for Photo-JPEG to 100% changes it from YUV to lossless ARGB compression.  You can keep the alpha and avoid colorspace conversion.  Use the 'dialog' message to do this.

hi max
in your patch you use the jpeg codec for recording in this mode you can change the colourmode to YUV with pix_yuv
before pix_record. the bug affects only the rgba mode - but when you use a codec without alpha channel
this is a easy workaround. this was discussed in the list 2008:
