(1)import a video clip
(2)add Target track
(3)track features

(4)camera solve (see the picture above)
(5)select points, Scene geometry/add Plane constrain/Adjust solve
(6)select points, 3D Tasks/Generate Mesh using 3d view
(7)select points, add test objects
(8)Export camera solve to maxscript format
