I would like to be able to load a texture into memory and use it to render on a rectangle shape. During each frame I would like to be able to update the texture before I render it on the rectangle again. I've come across Dynamic Textures in the help but I'm not too sure how to do what I want. Does anyone know where I could find some good help on using dynamic textures. Maybe some sample code too. Oh, one other thing, which video cards support dynamic textures? which do not? thanks,

If you can, the best approach is to use UpdateTexture which upload the portions of texture you need to change before the draw call.
