Thema: Improvements to OpenOpera HBBTV plugin

Having selected OSD transparency, I find it difficult to read web pages in OpenOpera's web browser with the TV programme shining through.

with OSD transparency:


without transparency:


I have therefore added the possibility to configure the transparency for OpenOpera's web browser separately (default: 255 = non transparent) in the "OSD position" menu.

This requres changes in openATV and in OpenOpera (see below for the commit and the patch).

I'm now wondering how this patch will make it into OpenOpera, hoping that some of the authors will read this. Would it be possible to set up a git repository for the OpenOpera plugin (or parts of it)? I know there are more people working on improvements, e.g. key handling fixing a Gigablue problem, so it would be great to have a git repository. Thanks.
