WhatA transparent video rendering SDK and CDN pipeline that leverages AV2's alpha channel stream support to enable performant transparent video overlays in web, mobile, and AR applications.
SignalDevelopers and designers have long wanted proper transparent video on the web but current workarounds are hacky and expensive; AV2's spec-level alpha channel support finally makes this viable as a standard.
