1.create a new app

2.copy the code to .html
```
<video id=“video” autoplay=“autoplay” loop=“loop” width=“300” height=“150”>
    <source src=“sintel.mp4” type=“video/mp4; codecs=&quot;avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2&quot;” />
    <source src=“sintel.ogv” type=“video/ogg; codecs=&quot;theora, vorbis&quot;” />
<video>
```
3.copy the code to .js file
```
function runCode(app) {
    // 复制下面的代码到runCode下面
    var screen, video, texture, material
    video =document.getElementById(“video”);
    screen = app.scene.getObjectByName(“screen”);
    texture = new v3d.VideoTexture(video);
    texture.minFilter = v3d.LinearFilter;
    texture.format = v3d.RGBFormat;
    material = new v3d.MeshBasicMaterial({map : texture});
    screen.material = material;
    app.animate();
}
```
4.result.

Hi zjbcool,

I’ve already read your page (https://zjbcool.com/video-texture.html), but ( I’m not programmer ) I don’t understand How to replace material to video .

Have you an easy demo ?

Hi,

I’ve create new project named “video”, in Blender 2.79, I’ve video.blend where there’s only a plane called screen and other parameters called always screen (see attachments).
In body of file video.html I wrote
```
<video id=“video” autoplay=“autoplay” loop=“loop” width=“300” height=“150”>
    <source src=“sintel.mp4” type=“video/mp4; codecs=&quot;avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2&quot;” />
    <source src=“sintel.ogv” type=“video/ogg; codecs=&quot;theora, vorbis&quot;” />
<video>
```
and in file video.js I wrote
```
function runCode(app) {
    // 复制下面的代码到runCode下面
    var screen, video, texture, material
    video =document.getElementById(“video”);
    screen = app.scene.getObjectByName(“screen”);
    texture = new v3d.VideoTexture(video);
    texture.minFilter = v3d.LinearFilter;
    texture.format = v3d.RGBFormat;
    material = new v3d.MeshBasicMaterial({map : texture});
    screen.material = material;
    app.animate();
}
```
but at the end I’ve only white page .

I don’t know where I’m wrong

As far as I know,It is only by code.
do you have a video file like sintel.mp4？You should place ‘sintel.mp4’ with your own video file in the .html.
And here is an example file, hope to help you.

Unfortunately Chrome browser always have issue with autoplay video, the interactive will behave abnormal. Worked on Firefox.

I have been messing around with getting video into my scenes and so far I think you might have to have the ‘muted’ flag added to the html to get the video to autoplay.. of course, the video then plays, but no sound.

Example:
<video id=”video” autoplay loop muted>

Fyi The sample video zjbcool used, starts with a black frame. So when I saw black, I figured I did something wrong and nothing was displaying, when in fact, it was just freezed on the first frame, which was black.

I have a cold beer for anyone who can figure out how to add a video texture that allows the alpha channel so the background is transparent.

Here is an article I am trying to digest right now on a related concept. Viewer discretion suggested 😊

How to add a click object to play the video? if possible would be good enough. Thanks.

The moment I add this to my js file it kills the app and it won’t load anymore. Can someone provide an updated example of a video material?

Verge3d devs, it would be prudent to have this as an example project included with Verge3d or a puzzle to plug videos in to the application.

I think we’ll make a puzzle for that
