Yes, it is possible. But only support for ios currently and it is direct stream, without download the video. See ✖ I am a Programmer™ ✖: iYoutube Unity iOS Plugin

This still works very well even today! :)

I have the same issue. How would using a sphere solve this? Wouldn't using a sphere just give you a spherical collider with the same problem?

Hi,

For anyone looking for this functionality we have launched a Unity Plugin on the asset store for playing YouTube videos natively on iOS AND Android.

Hopefully this helps out anyone looking!

Let us know if there are any additional features required.

Does it place the youtube video's audio into an Audio source friend? :)

Is it possible to add that for HTML5 without stepping on a CORS-type problem?
Thanks for the great support already at everyone - can’t be said enough!

Yes, but you need to host some php files, these php act like a proxy and you can play the video in webgl (only normal video, not livestreams).
