MP4 Cinema 4D Material

[RezeFX]

Hallo Community,

I have a little Material Question... I am using Cinema 4D r15... When i am loading a mp4 file into the diffuse with an Image Texture it just turns gray?! Could somebody help me?

I think it will not work. Plugin try to convert one frame to image when you have a movie. .mov files may work if everythings goes fine. Otherwise try image sequences.

In my experience, image sequences work best in C4D.

Did you try hitting Calculate in the Animation tab inside the Image Texture properties?

Is there a video tutorial on how to do this at all?

Nothing is different than using C4D bitmaps. It maybe an issue on plugin if you cannot do it worked fine.
