Well, been trying this, but it seems that poser figures, props, or clothing just dont go into .MTS format very well. Have loaded up some nice looking pieces in Poser, exported them... and they look horrible. Basically, the texture resolutions are not holding, as they don't look sharp and clear as in Poser. So, any of you pros taken a jab at this yet? I'm like to know if this is a known limitation of Poser or am I doing something very wrong? -Regards Mr.Bill

I did some experimenting with this some days ago, so I know your frustrations. Although I never did achieve what I wanted, I did discover that the Metastream control at the top left of the viewer held some options that radically changed the image. Have you tried this pull-down menu? Jan Warren

Well I finally got MetaStream working when I got the "Patch" for MAC. I had tried it with Poser for PC, but ran into the problems above. First try to get the patch and see if that helps. Also, the exporter does not let you set any parameters. It just exports. So you need to go to MetaStreams home page and get all the info, and copy some params from their site too (using get page source). You need to sett all the nessassary prams in your HTML. Pull down menu on the page helps too. But what if there is no menu (this is a pram that can be turned off) Here is a link to a simple box MTS I did as a joke. MTS Link This shows how well the texture can get. Though not as crisp as an actual render, it's not bad for streaming over the net. MTS My Poser Box Hope this helps. James
