Questions & Answers

Hello Everyone,
I have created a GameObject adding the unity new VideoPlayer game component which comes with unity 5.6. But when I include it within a scroll view and when I scroll down it goes beyond the scroll area. It doesn’t get hidden. Can anyone help me to solve this issue?

Hi prasadl,

yes you can do that. Use a render texture.

  1. In your assets folder create a new asset “Render Texture”
  2. In your ScrollRect content add a new UI element “Raw Image”
  3. Assign the raw image the Render Texture you just created
  4. Add the VideoPlayer component to your object that has the RawImage component on it
  5. Set the video player render mode to render texture and assign the same render texture there too
  6. Have a sip of coffee

The video will now render on the texture and get masked out when you scroll.

Cheers
