[Help] playing video in windows media player and unity scene

Unity Engine
1

Hi EveryOne,

Need to play my video in windows media player (or any other player) after click my unity 3d button in my screen?.

I took the standalone build from unity , in that data file i kept my vide file. I have a script in my button, that is below:

if(GUI.Button(new Rect(10, 10, 100, 30), "WMP"))
{
 System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("wmplayer.exe", "C:\\user\\Desktop\\New folde\\videofile.mp4");
}

but the vide is not playing.

I need to play that video in windows media player as well as my unity scene.

Please help me to solve this issue.

Thanks.

Are you missing an r from the file path? Maybe you don’t have a folder called “New Folde”?

nothing like that…

when i just copy paste that was missed, thats all.

is there any way to play the video on unity as well as outside the unity?

try below line.

If u testing the application in unity editor , put the video file into asset folder.
If u testing the exe , put the video file into data folder.

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(“wmplayer.exe”, Application.dataPath+“\your_video.mp4”);

i want to keep the video in out side the assets folder and i need to play that in unity and also windows media player

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(“wmplayer.exe”, “C:/user/Desktop/New folder/videofile.mp4”);
