Texture Compression Technique for Mobile Effects: Removing Hollow Areas to Reduce Memory Usage

This article presents a texture compression method that eliminates hollow (alpha‑zero) regions by reorganizing textures into macro‑blocks, storing index maps for reconstruction, and demonstrates significant memory savings and unchanged visual quality on mobile devices, even after video encoding.

Implementing Shift-and-Blend Video Effects with OpenGL Shaders

In this article, Tencent engineer Chang Qing explains the biology‑inspired “Shift‑and‑Blend” video effect—separating RGB channels, scaling and translating each, then alpha‑blending them—while detailing a normalized coordinate system, the required scaling/translation operations, and a high‑performance OpenGL fragment shader implementation for real‑time video processing, with links to demo and source code.
