Comment:

 Replying to [comment:9 projectsymphony]:
 > It's a well known behaviour that when alpha is converted to an opaque
 format it is blended with black by default

 This is not how FFmpeg or avconv behave (or ever have) and such a
 behaviour would be a significant and unexpected change afaict. (And why
 should black be the default? See for example laraShadow_dl.flv.)

 I am closing this ticket because I neither see a bug nor do I think the
 bug tracker is the right place to discuss a significant change of
 behaviour: Imo, send a patch (or PoC) to the development mailing lists.
