[Libav-user] AVFilterGraph and an In-Memory Image

[Stephen H. Gerstacker]

As a follow up, I attempted the following

Create a new “buffer” that I dump BGRA frames in to (that’s the format the watermark is in as memory).
Every time I add a frame to my original buffer, I add a watermark frame to my watermark buffer.
After the pad link, I added an “overlay” filter with the pad and watermark buffer as inputs, outputting to the buffersink.

This worked, but I loose the alpha transparency. Anything I can do to preserve that?
