It's indeed possible to encode vp9 webm with transparency!

copypaste to ingame browser this test:
http://reaby.kapsi.fi/maniaplanet/test/index.xml

And here's how do to it:
1. make uncompressed avi with alpha channel
2. then download ffmpeg and say:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i test.avi test.webm
You can then display fullsized manialink at intro mediatracker:
(see the index.xml for help)

Good luck with your project!
