live video

Hello, I am fairly new to using MAX and am looking for someone that could help me out with something. My teacher wants us to make a patcher that could be used for live Video Djing. Maybe something that mixes three video planes with some shaders. Does anyone happen to have any examples i could follow? or try to alter? Also, is there a good way to load multiple videos and change them out with a button or something like that. Possibly a list i could choose from to load the video i want it easier to work with live instead of hitting the read button over and over? Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Max Patch
Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

Use this for getting a list of videos. I don't remember exactly who to credit for it, unfortunately. Maybe Andrew B? So, don't pass it off as your own :-)

For triggering videos you may to check my remoteVJ (http://workshops.paweljanicki.jp/downloads/remoteVJ/remoteVJ.zip). No EN guide, but I don't want to sabot your teacher's work...
