Hi,
On Mac OS, pix_film seems to ignore the alpha channel of videos encoded with the Apple Animation codec. It works fine on Linux (same patch, same video files), but on Mac OS transparent pixels are displayed as opaque black.
I have already sent [pix_film] the "colorspace RGBA" message.
Is there a way to get it to work on Mac OS too?
Thanks m.

I think I recall that you can get it with GridFlow, but if ever you don't get it with the default decoder, there's another one that you can specify explicitly.
[#in stuff.mov] vs [#in quicktimehw stuff.mov]
or
"open stuff.mov" vs "open quicktimehw stuff.mov".
I think one of the two will work. But my actual experience is by decoding 4-channel PNG videos... I just don't remember which way I did it, on which OS(es), etc.

Never mind, it was my fault, I wasn't setting the colorspace correctly. Since in linux it worked (because the colorspace is already RGBA by default) I assumed the patch was OK and didn't notice my error.
