I am new to this forum as so i am to Maya... I am trying to figure out how to import a video file into maya as a texture to place it on an object (NURBS sphere) but no satisfactory results so far here are my doubts.
Do I have to use a video file or a sequence of images?
Can I re-position the video texture usin UV displacement? if so, HOW can I do it?

Use a sequence of images its bettre, maya can use aimage file but i dont recomend you do this as it can be a huge peorformance hit (even if it seem odd but not all fileformats are optimized for random lookup, and maya needs to uncopress them anyway so they still use as much mam as a uncomprressed tif anyway)
