[GEM-dev] Can't play transparent videos

[Antoine Villeret]

The gitlab repo is more up-to-date, I just archive the github one and put a
forward link in the readme.md.
The issue regarding alpha is also present on gitlab.
But I just tried it and it works fine with HAP Alpha after manually
enabling alpha rendering (send [alpha on( see [pd alpha] subpatcher in help
file).
I'll update the issue asap.

cheers
