Hello. am new tot he forum... i just got renderlights academics. i want t o ask that how can we project the video? i tried the image it worked.. but video is not showing.. so how can we do it?
and one other question is that how to rotate light direction? and is there any manual? and when are more tutorials coming?

Hello mate.

Well video projection in theory works with the codecs you have installed on your computer, but often they fail to display the animation properly.

I normally do many version of a same video and test which one works best, you can use a free aplication called any video converter (http://www.any-video-converter.com/products/for_video_free/) is very handy and I think you will find that perhaps ASF format is the one that works best. WMV also work most of the time, some trial and error is required.

I hope you have time to test this method, let us know if we can help more.

Light direction can be changed trough the light Pane, or you can just right click the light and keep the right mouse button pressed to rotate the lights.

Manual is almost ready, and Im hopping to add more video tutorials very soon.
