cinematics and .avi files

I want to play an .avi file with Unity. How do I go about doing that?

On a similiar note. what do I use to play a cut-scene cinematic?

  1. You need Unity Pro, movie texture is pro only
  2. drop it into unity it will then convert it to ogg theora, the only format supported on desktop and web (if you want better quality, take an uncompressed avi and convert with miro or another ffmpeg2theora converter as this gives smaller filesizes with much better quality)

if (usingUnityFree){
useSpriteSheet = true;
}
else (
goForUnityPro();
}
}

bsisko, i’m using unity free, and i do sprite sheets and for loops framing all the movie into single indexed images. it works !.
