I am unable to load MP4 video into iClone ("unknown CODEC" message).
However...
I can load an AVI or WMV file, which means it could be used as a background and your characters could be animated to do stuff, sort of like standing in front of a large movie screen.
Is that what you were thinking of? What are you attempting to accomplish?
