Displaying video in a billboards

Hi everyone,

I saw reference on a 2015 post that video wasn’t something that could be displayed in a billboard. Our ultimate goal is to replicate functionality we have in Unreal Engine where video dynamically scrubs based on the vehicle location based off timecode.

Thoughts on this? Streaming from Youtube or other server are both options.

There is some functionality for displaying videos on entities, as shown in Cesium Sandcastle (which you could probably apply to a rectangle/cube, to emulate the appearance of a billboard). But streaming arbitrary videos from sources like YouTube probably goes beyond hat. Maybe that link is helpful as a starter, at least…

Thank you! Yeah, that’s a great track to follow - I’ll report back if/when we get this working.
