Hi Anna,<br>
<br>
Thanks for your question. The quick answer is that displaying
rasters in the background is not currently supported in the
lxy.exp.mov() function. This has been on my to-do list for a while,
so I'll go ahead and add it and issue a package update later this
week.<br>
<br>
In the interim, if you are interested in a natural earth backdrop
you could potentially use lxy.exp.kml() to export a set of
time-stamped locations for Google Earth, and play an animation with
Google Earth's animation toolbar (and if desired record it using a
screen capture program). <br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Andy<br>
