I hit quite a big problem trying to overlay a transparent PNG onto video node. It looks like transparency is not applied correctly and the white transparent image makes video darker.
Screen grab - video is a white 30 seconds clip. Top rectangles are black with different transparency level the bottom ones are white and from some reason are visible as grey. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7BZMWDc5aPQSjB2OGFGb0s2QjQ

Can anyone advice, what is going on here? Is the "Poster" object can be used as an overlay?
<component name = "VideoExample" extends = "Scene">
<script type = "text/brightscript" >
<![CDATA[
sub init()
videocontent = createObject("RoSGNode", "ContentNode")
videocontent.title = "Example Video"
videocontent.streamformat = "mp4"
videocontent.url = "pkg:/images/white.mp4"
video = m.top.findNode("videoNode")
video.content = videocontent
video.setFocus(true)
video.control = "play"
end sub
]]>
</script>
<children >
<Video id="videoNode" width="1280" height="720" loop="true">
<Poster id="overlayNode" uri="pkg:/images/gradient.png"/>
</Video>
</children>
</component>
In previous version of Brightscript we were using: "roImageCanvas" which is deprecated and looks like "Poster" is the only replacement. Isn't it? BTW transparency is incorrect only when overlay-ed on the video node - the same PNG overlay-ed on white "Poster" background behaves as expected and bottom row of rectangles is not visible.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
