    In 1.0, there is no softedge when using multiple output.

    Over premultiplied has to be used when the color of your input image/movie/Syphon was already multiplied by the alpha channel.

    Compositing with over is :
    result = alpha * source + (1-alpha) * destination

    with "over premultiplied" :
    result = source + (1-alpha) * destination

    This blending mode is useful with Syphon as the result of OpenGL rendering will premultiply the color passed to Syphon with the alpha channel.
    If you use the wrong blending mode for a given input, you will see a problem on edges (which will be too dark)
