Is it possible to import movies in your project.  It should be something like you see in cartoons.  Every figure, even the television, is created in the cartoon but you can see real images on the televison in that cartoon.  How do I do something like that.

i think you'd need to be able to put gifs as a material, but i don't think that this is possible with anim8or yet, mabye it's a feature that could be included in the next version (if possible)

Yes, it is possible, using an .avi video clip.  I haven't tested with DivX or Mpeg4 because I never use those formats, but don't think VirtualDub handles those.  You will need VirtualDub (Google it - its free) and Terranim8or v6.6.1 (NOT v7).  Use VirtualDub to sequence the video clip into individual .jpg files, Terrainim8or to turn that sequence into an animated background for an Anim8or scene.  Stick the sequencer target into the front of your tv set and Bob's your uncle.  I've just run a test, took about ten minutes to set up.

It does take a bit of planning, because you need to define the size of the background animation and the number of frames beforehand, but its pretty easy.
