I'm running E17 with X11 on a TI DM8148 (SGX 530) platform with OpenGL 
compositing enabled. We're using hardware acceleration available on the SOC to 
do H.264 video decode through Gstreamer, and need to render this video on the 
display along with a graphical overlay from X.  We can use the hardware video 
layer (which takes care of color conversion in hardware) and a color key to 
enable transparency between the E17/X11 framebuffer and the video layer in the 
background.  The graphics hardware also supports per pixel alpha blending 
between layers, which we would prefer over a simple color key.

Is there a way I can convince E17 in the presence of a compositor to let me 
write alpha values to the frame buffer? Should I abandon the hardware video 
layer and move to Emotion?

Thanks for any assistance.
