In particular, we do not have the whole media-on-a-prim stuff that has been developed internally. I have as a task to merge that in trunk in the next Snowglobe 1.3 release (https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-301). First though, we need to stabilize and ship 1.2... As for capturing input, it is possible to capture mouse events and pass them to the plugin. If you look into the current Snowglobe trunk code base, there is an example plugin doing just that in indra/test_apps/llplugintest/demo_media_plugin_2.cpp (it's a simple "draw brush" on the animated surface). There is however little documentation on all this right now that is available. We are working on it though. For keyboard capture though, I don't think there's any provision right now to pass those events to the plugin. That's something that Aimee already pointed out in her earlier experiments. Something to think about then. Cheers, - Merov
