Displaying sprites over Video Player

Unity Engine
1

Hey guys!

So I have been at this for quite some time now and I can’t for the life of me figure it out.

Basically I am NOT using a canvas for certain design reasons and I am trying to have some sprites appear over my Video Player. For some reason text will appear over the video player perfectly but I cannot get sprites to.

I have messed with Layers, Sorting Layers, Order in Layer, Z index, as well as the sprites render queue being set to 5000.

Any suggestions or feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Hey!
Did you manage to figure this out? I need to implement this in one of my projects as well.

Thanks,

Hey forum,

Any tips on this yet? Stuck on same issue. I’ve tried using different cameras, changing culling options etc to no avail.

Any ideas very welcome.

if anyone needs the same thing yet
you can set the VideoPlayer render mode property to “Camera Far Plane”, and after that, a sprite or 3d object can be added
