How do I make the TV be turned on and maybe showing a game or something when making a walkthrough in Enscape for Revit ? Right now the TVs are off in my videos and it gives my videos a very dull unrealistic feel.

I explained in this video tutorial how you can use video materials in Revit+Enscape 2.9
You can add "self illumination" to adjust the video brightness..
-
uncheck restmode in the General setting --> performance
should work ??

You may not be using our latest release.
Our latest release in general fully supports animated textures now, so give it a try and let me know in case any questions arise.

Demian Gutberlet Thank you for your response. I am headed to update to the latest release. Will definitely let you know should I run into issues. Thanks to the amazing support team by Enscape.

MTH The video tutorial was really helpful and I was able to have a video running on my TV. I have one issue though. The video texture doesn't seem to be sitting correctly in the X-axis and I want to move the texture along that axis . I do not want to increase the size, just nudge it along the horizontal plane. See attachment of how the video is split up in the TV along X axis.

[video:F:\Alek\Fun\Video.mp4|6.3|3.6|0]
the 6.3 for example are actually multiplier, in "horizontal" and 3.6 multiply in vertical
0 is rotation
so for your example you can first increase the first digit from 1 to 1.3 let say, give a try to change the scale,
then you have to use a Surface Pattern under Graphics
as Pattern Type -->Model
so you can in 3d view move the patern to fit your need, take the vertical bar move it on the right

Hi all,
What happen when you have a TV Screen family? You can't move the patterns from a family in the project environment...
-
If you parameterize the material in the family you can modify in the project.

Phil Read the problem is that I've tried that following one example that I've found online and it doesn't work in my TV Screen family. I think the dimension must be referenced to a fixed ref.level included in the family template. If not it doesn't work
See below for the example I saw that works well
See below for my example where it doesn't work

bagarwalla You can always create the pattern in the family, move it in there and load it back to Revit until it fits the desired position. It may work if you have only one TV screen or just one video for all the screens

This is the process for using a model pattern in a Revit family to properly apply and modify the location of an image or video texture. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse…-revit-enscape-phil-read/

jmariper I did try that but somehow it never worked for me. I am going to give it a shot again.
The other thing I tried was to scale the video texture in the path so it is much larger than the TV screen and would occupy the whole screen. But even then it would scale it up off centered.
Phil Read That is a great explanation. Will try it out.

Hi
I've followed the path in the video and added the video links as suggest but still can't see anything on the screen. What am I missing?
Thanks

You should start by adding a still image and adding illumination as well to make sure everything works. Then add the video with the proper path, size and orientation. The origin will be resolved while placing the still image. Here's my recommended workflow: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse…-revit-enscape-phil-read/
The likely cause of the video not playing is an incorrect path.
