Hi all,
Is it normal that I get always 1 on the fourth output after the
[unpack f f f f] from the second outlet of [pix_mean_color] ? I tried
with an [alpha], but nothing changed.
Here's the test file.
Thanks,

Bonjour,
[alpha] in itself doesn't modify a pix, it only activates the use of the alpha channel in a tex, and so, it's only relevant after using [pix_texture], and it doesn't do what you want to do.
What do you want the alpha channel to represent, in your pix ?

No, it activate alpha blending in the fragment processor, so on a geo after resterization or/and a texture apply on this rasterized geo.
and so, it's only relevant after using [pix_texture],
Or without [pix_texture] (just a geo).
and it doesn't do what you want to do.
that true.

Only the alpha ! Look at the 'data' folder in the gem example, there is a 'fractalAlpha.TIF', [pix_mean_color] return the average of the alpha in this pix.
Anas, put a [pix_rgba] after [pix_video]. ++

ah... désolé, tu as raison.
