Real time VFX/production is coming to the fore and I believe from watching many tutorials on Iclone and your other plugins that you guys might just have made the ideal piece of software for this new emerging market. 

I believe a huge number of creators are now realising the potential of integrating real time graphics into their live performances, this is surely one of the biggest advantages to using real time graphics. With this in mind, could you guys please, please create a way to import live streaming video. Yes I know there's a plugin for UE4 but being an artist my brain doesn't have the complexity to work with hundreds of vector nodes just to get a video to play back in the background or to create a shadow catcher material.  Your software takes these huge complex calculations and makes them user/artist friendly.  From what I've seen Iclone has managed to really simplify so many of these challenging areas, surely it can't be too difficult to just add a URL input for live video feeds?  I just think it would be great if I could address all my real time needs in one package.

Keep up the great work!

You can apply a video to a "billboard" by modifying the materials. Change the diffuse texture. My video test was an avi file.Dont know if it works with mp4 or other. Also you have to resize the billboard to suit aspect ratio.  I found you can us a "floor " primitive which is easier to move around and scale - you have to figure out scaling to match your video aspect ratio but of course it is not live !! To be able to link an online video would be a good feature. 

Yes this is a good feature and I used it a lot in my short but Real-Time camera video input would be amazing. we also need a good camera in iclone like in Unreal to get that cinematic look with smooth DOF.
