I am trying to do this and I can't get it to work in the picture viewer. All I get is a black background. I have tried tif and png sequences.

Hi dancouto,
since you have to use a standard c4d material for background, have you chacked if it works with standard c4d render first?
I'm guessing, but maybe there is something wrong in the sequence file naming :rool:
