How convert streaming-video-in-the-3d-view to embedded video?

Hi guys, I’ve enjoyed doing the tutorial (https://docs.zap.works/studio/projects/step-by-step-streaming-video-in-the-3d-view/) and look to do something similar, but with an embedded video instead.

I’m not sure how to convert the current streaming video symbol to an embedded video option? Thanks so much.

Hi Johan,

For embedded video, you will want to ignore the steps that refer to the video player symbol (as this is streaming video) and instead use implementation described in the following video - https://docs.zap.works/studio/video-in-the-3D-view/

You’ll probably be able to use a similar position for the plane that displays the video inside of the group but the scripting syntax will be a little different, and you’ll use an MP4 dragged into the Hierarchy as opposed to one hosted somewhere.

Any issues with it let us know :slight_smile:

Hi Mark, excellent thank you so much!

Hi guys, hope you’re doing well.

I have a follow up question on the 3D TV streaming video tutorial.

Is it possible to stream a live video into the 3D TV model?

And if so, which service would be best to consider for this?
At the moment we’re using Google Cloud Platform to stream our videos into the 3D TV.

regards
Johan

Hi Johan,

As long as the live-streamed video follows the format outlined in the Z.Video documentation then it should work.

Cheers,
Mark

Thank you Mark, appreciate it.
