Hello everyone,
I’ve been facing an issue for several weeks now.
I need to play flat stereo 8K videos (4K per eye) with transparency on the edges and the ability to fade them in/out.
Here are the two solutions I’ve tested to play these videos:
- Unity Video Player: This forces me to use a Render Texture, which causes significant lag. However, by using a custom shader for my stereo setup, I can manage alpha and masks as I want.
- VisionOSVideoComponent: This requires the video to be encoded in MVHEVC to support stereo, but this codec doesn’t handle alpha. Additionally, it’s impossible to use a custom shader to manage alpha or masks.
Anyway, the Unity Video Player with Render Texture lags so much that it’s unusable. I’m therefore forced to use the VisionOS player, which doesn’t allow me to handle alpha for fading.
Has anyone found a way to play videos with transparency using the VisionOS player?
Thank you very much.
