Hi guys. I've been trying to place a transparent png over a video
playing on Firefox using MPlayer and Ubuntu 9.10.

I tried first to put a transparent div, but it doesn't transparent to
the video but to the body background.

I've already tried options like the <video> tag and codec support on
Firefox 3, but I need to play mms videos, video streaming in that
format, and Firefox doesn't support mms.

Here's a screenshot showing that it doesn't transparent the video.

Do you think that the mplayer plugin needs some kind of hackery in order
to support this? is it a x.org/framebuffer issue?


Thank you so much!


Juan Pablo.
