Hello,
I'm going to describe what I have in mind.
I have a video camera with a PAL output. I also have an embedded board with a VGA or DVI-D or S-video output. I'd like to mix both signals to get the overlay of the latter on the former.
The goal is make a graphical OSD superimposed on the video camera output. Of course I need to define a transparent color, I'm thinking about a whole channel (e.g. blue) used as alpha channel.
What is the best way to achieve this? (I'm talking about the overlay section). Do you know embedded boards which do that task easily?
Some specs:
- overlay resolution: equal or higher than 800 x 600
- overlay color depth: truecolor RGB + alpha channel, if not possible two color channel + one alpha channel (all equal or higher than 8 bit)
