Overlay using roVideoScreen

Hi,

Is it possible to do overlays using roImageCanvas and roVideoScreen.

The roImageCanvas seems to work only with the roVideoScreen for overlays.

Thanks.

Re: Overlay using roVideoScreen

Do you mean roScreen? What you have written looks like a question, and then the answer to that same question...

The roImageCanvas seems to work only with the roVideoPlayer for overlays on video streams.

Thanks.

At some point it was apparently possible. Not sure at this point.

NO, I can not get them to work together. Use Videoplayer instead. There is customerplayer sample app.
