IMHO, from a compositing point of view, alpha only and gray is the same thing. It's common (in cgi compositing for example), to use alpha (or matte) as separate gray only file. But like the maintainer of the hapdec/enc in ffmpeg doesn't want this way of interpreting the HAP alpha only codec, (and like i doesn't want to fight on this point) we can make some example in the doc, using filter, to help user to work with that codec Martin _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
