Music video in timeline - video playback via projector, music playback via speakers, and lighting settings via Superscene

I want to use a video as a background for a dance performance via a projector. A music video was created to also play the music required for the dance performance. For this, the lighting needs to be controlled down to the second.

As far as I can tell, you can create a Superscene in the Daslight software and control the lighting to the music. But now I would like to play the video at the same time. Unfortunately, you can't import a video file into the Superscene... or can you?

Hello,

Unfortunately Daslight 5 does not support video playback within a Super Scene timeline. The best option for you is likely to use an external software for video playback, then use MIDI or OSC triggers to trigger the video playback at the same time as the Super Scene.

Kind regards,
Will
