How can i play the Video using Gui Texture

Unity Engine
1

Hi all

I am using Unity 5.5.3. In my project project i have to play the video from Resource Folder.

I dont want use 5.6 using the video player option. So I saw the option of Movie Texture to play the video.

But i think iphone is not supported Movie Texture.

So
HandHeld.playmovie is the only option to play the movie in unity 5.5.3 or

Movie texture will play the movie in iphone…

Thanks in Advance…

I’m not certain myself, but why do you believe iPhone is not supported? This seems to imply that it is supported Unity - Manual: Movie Texture

It does actually say it’s not supported if you scroll down to the iOS section.

@Alexander21 Why don’t you want to use the new video player?

As a very vague/general note, if you are not truly “stuck” (use this term somewhat loosely) in that old version of Unity, why not just update to the most recent (non-beta) version and use what is available? :slight_smile:

Hi Thanks All For Your Reply

In Unity 3d Documentation Clearly Mentioned[quote]
iOS
Movie Textures are not supported on iOS. Instead, full-screen streaming playback is provided using Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie.

So I think Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie is the only option to play the movie…

At present i am not going to update to 5.6 .For Some reason.

Thanks all for your reply
