Hi Klaus,
I'm trying to use a video with an alpha channel for transparency. I have looked through the documentation and forums and see that the only On2 VP6 will work but unfortunately, that is a deprecated format and I can’t find any easy way to create a video in that format.
It is reasonably easy to create a Webm video with an alpha channel but as you know the videoplayer.js doesn’t support the alpha channel. I used FFMpeg to convert a series of PNG's.
On top of that, I am not sure if an HTML 5 KRPano would playback a file encoded with VP6 even if I managed to get something encoded to that format. Any thoughts on whether or not VP6 would play using the SWF video player within an HTML 5 environment?
So my next question… Is it possible to use another java video player with a distorted hotspot? I made a very crude attempt at trying to use the video player (main.js) at the bottom of this post in KRPano but of course, it failed. He does have his code on GitHub but that is way way way over my head.

Thanks for reading this far.
