Hey! Is it possible in VideoPostData::AllocateBuffer() to allocate an RGBA buffer? (as opposed to a seperate
RGB and Alpha buffer).

Thanks!

Hi Niklas,

Do you want to create a custom RGBA buffer with Render::AllocateBufferFX() in VideoPostData::AllocateBuffers()?

Yes exactly Yannick. Is it possible? VPBUFFER_POSTEFFECT gives me only an RGB buffer and 
VPBUFFER_POSTEFFECT_MUL gives me only a Grayscale (Alpha) buffer.

If it is not, maybe there is some way to "associate" the two buffers so file formats that support it
will receive it as a single RGBA layer instead?

I'll ask the developers if that's possible.

Hi Niklas,

I'm afraid it's not possible to associate VPBUFFER_POSTEFFECT and VPBUFFER_POSTEFFECT_MUL buffers.
