> Hi, Hi Louis,
FreeType is just responsible for extracting bitmaps from font files and doesn't have anything to do with using/displaying the extracted data. > My problem is that I try to display a video as background for my application. > When the freetype text is on top of the video then I have a black background > all around the character. What framework are you using for playing the videos? If I had to make a guess it could be related to the video player; however, as far as I am informed, the chance that this issue has got anything to do with FreeType (directly) is almost zero. > On the attached image, the green background is the video, and the black > rectangle is the problem. > > Do you know how to get rid of this black background ? That really depends on the technique you're using for drawing the glyphs; a minimal code/working example with a good description about how to reproduce it could maybe help us to determine if this issue you're running into is related to FreeType.
