I found it was very easy to add, so I created a branch called "alpha" on the Github repo for an update that supports alpha channels.

I will merge it into the master branch once I get confirmation from at least one person that it works correctly. I did some basic testing and believe it is good.

This is in response to an issue opened in the Github repo, so at least one person cares about it!

.

It works very simply: if the input video has an alpha channel then it automatically encodes to RGBA. No command-line option for it. I was surprised to find that the Cineform SDK does not support YUVA, which is why we encode to RGBA and don't bother with a command line option.
