[PD] freehand drawing on video in GEM

Single buffered drawing won't work with what he is describing, unless he 
repaints all of the brush strokes.  When a new video frame is drawn, it 
will overwrite everything.  This can be worked around by playing with the 
Z values though...set the video to draw behind the brush strokes and then 
make sure that you do Z writes for the brushes.  However, you won't be 
able to do alpha with this...

The best way to do this would be to either cache the brushes or renderer 
the brushes to another render target with alpha.  Then draw the video 
frame and draw the brush over top.  You could also hand render the brushes 
to a texture with alpha and then just draw the quad.  I don't know what 
the current set of GEM objects is though, so these 2 ideas might require 
creating some new objects.

As suggested by Chris, single buffer rendering is the good choice. 
Then send a bang from [metro 1] (for exemple) to [gemhead] to force 
the rendering (to your [gemhead] with the movie and to your [gemhead] 
for the 'painting').
