Video Player and Alpha Channels

I trying to use some videos produce by a very skilled video shooter and editor inside a 360. The video format is a MOV file with an alpha channel in it. When I run the 360 the standard Play/Pause text will show up when moved over the video hotspot but nothing shows up.

When I look at the XML all the generated infomation about the video, size, etc is wrong. The video is 720 by 480 pixels. Here's what I've put in:

<hotspot name="videospot2"
url="videoplayer.swf"
videourl="rise fast.mov"
distorted="true"
ath="0"
atv="0"
edge="center"
scale="1.0"
rx="0"
ry="0"
rz="0"
loop="true"
pausedonstart="true"
directionalsound="true"
range="110"
volume="0.7"
onhover="if(ispaused, showtext(click to play, videohoverstyle), showtext(click to pause, videohoverstyle));"
onclick="togglepause();"
/>

And here's what is in the XML when I run this.

<hotspot name="videospot2"
url="videoplayer.swf"
keep="false"
ath="0" atv="0"
zoom="false" distorted="true" details="8" flying="0"
width="400" height="300"
scale="1" scale9grid="" scalechildren="false" rotate="0"

buffertime="0.1"
devices="all"
directionalsound="true"
imageheight="300"
imagewidth="400"
iscomplete="false"
isvideoready="false"
loadedbytes="0"
loop="true"
maskchildren="false"
onvideocomplete=""
onvideoready=""
outofrangevolume="0"
pausedonstart="true"
pixelheight="0"
pixelhittest="false"
pixelwidth="0"
range="110"
rangefalloff="1"
totalbytes="0"
totaltime="0"
updateeveryframe="true"
videourl="rise fast.mov"
volume="0.7"
/>

Any ideas as to why this is, one not showing up, two, getting the pixel dimensions wrong, and three what is the "isvideoready" function and why is it set to false?

Help, I need to know that embedded videos with ALPHA channels can work in KRPANO.

Cheers,

If this is not possible, is there a video format where transparency is supported and supported by the Video player in KRPano?

From some limited research, my Internet connection is down :( , the FLV format appears to support transparency if the players background is forced to alpha 0.

And if that's not possible is tranparency in animated GIF format supported?

Great, converted the MOV files to FLV's and it works, off to the races :)

Cheers,

Robert
