I am trying to bring in my video reference into maya 2018. I have tried to set a camera and use a image plane movie saved as an .avi file and its blank. I get an error if i use an mp4 file or .mov file . I have tried saving my reference as a .jpeg and .targa and bring it in under a camera under environment and using an image sequence and only the first file shows and i can not get the others to load on the timeline. I have tried creating a poly plane and loading my video on that and its just blank, (my textures are turned on) I have tried everything i can think of and everything on google and I can't figure it out. the only time it works if i do an image plane movie of playblast animation i have done in the past.
any help would be much appreciated.
