hello, Gem is mostly design to work on the GPU, and not on the CPU. GPU have hundreds of core, they are faster than CPU for image manipulations. pix_add come from the 20th century and should now be avoid since it use cpu not gpu ;-) in order to make a fade transition between 2 videos, you can

Hahah, I did not mean it as a tip. I was complaining about the file size. As I said, the Apple Intermediary Codec works. However, at some random points in the videos (and only in a few files), the playback becomes very laggy. This applies in any Player, not just GEM. On Mon, Feb 4, 2013 at 9:28
