1) the video must be in AVI format. (If your video is in a different format, There are many video format converters you can DL for free from CNET.COM)

2) Once you have a video in AVI format, you can apply it as a texture. If you want the video to play as your background, the easy way to accomplish that is to CREATE > BACKDROPS then select the one you want, wide screen probably being the best choice for a background

3) Right click on the backdrop to open the floating menu, then select EDIT > PROPERTIES > then click on the image

4) on the bottom left corner of the dialog box, click IMPORT

5) navigate to the AVI file, and select it as the texture

6) the backdrop will look like a movie screen playing your AVI video!

7) adjust size of backdrop and/or camera view to fill the whole scene with your video (or whatever you need)


if you don't need transparent alpha channel video, that's it!

If you DO need alpha channel animations then a program named VIRTUALDUB (http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net) is a program that can assemble a series of individual PNG files into a flip-book style animation which can then be saved in AVI format

Hope this helps]]> Tue, 25 Aug 2015 22:08:51 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5122-how-do-i-combine-live-or-real-video.aspx Thu, 20 Aug 2015 22:32:13 GMT
