public interface MovieTexture
extends X3DSoundSourceNode, X3DTexture2DNode, X3DUrlObject
MovieTexture applies a 2D movie image to surface geometry, or provides audio for a Sound node.

X3D node tooltip: [X3DTexture2DNode,X3DSoundSourceNode,X3DUrlObject] MovieTexture applies a 2D movie image to surface geometry, or provides audio for a Sound node. First define as texture, then USE as Sound source to see it/hear it/save memory. Texture maps have a 2D coordinate system (s, t) horizontal and vertical, with (s, t) texture-coordinate values in range [0.0, 1.0] for opposite corners of the image.
  • Hint: can contain a single TextureProperties node.
  • Hint: insert Shape and Appearance nodes before adding texture.
  • Hint: provide a Viewpoint that allows a clear view of the MovieTexture so that users can easily see all details.
  • Hint: utilize DEF/USE references for multiple copies of a single MovieTexture video file in order to avoid multiple-download delays, reduce memory requirements, and maintain synchronization.
  • Hint: authors can provide multiple video formats for the same video track, with each source address listed separately in the url field.
  • Hint: player support for MPEG-1 video format is required, other formats are optional.
  • Warning: MovieTexture has containerField='texture' when parent is an Appearance node, otherwise containerField='source' when parent is a Sound node.
  • Hint: X3D Scene Authoring Hints, Images https://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/X3dSceneAuthoringHints.html#Images

  • Hint: X3D Architecture 17.2.2 Lighting model https://www.web3d.org/documents/specifications/19775-1/V3.3/Part01/components/lighting.html#Lightingmodel
  • Hint: apply containerField='watchList' when parent node is LoadSensor.
