Hi I’m having some problems playing a movie on an iPhone 3G.
The movie is 320x180 H.264, AAC
I’ve transfered the movie to the iPhone to test that it plays and it works fine.
The iPhone is running os 4.1
I’m using Unity 3.0.0f5

I have 1 scene file with just a camera and a java script attached to play the movie

function Update () 
{
	iPhoneUtils.PlayMovie("EN_01_Intro-YOGA.m4v", Color.black);
}

I only get a blue screen (the background) and no video playing

This works fine on 3rd generation iPod touch.

Hi. Try compressing your video with the sorenson codec. It solved some of our problems.

Hi Antonios what setting did you use?
I’ve tried reducing the bit rate down to next to nothing and still not getting it playing :frowning:

If you use Quicktime X just Saves As “iPhone”

Maybe try to insert the video in a 480x320 with letterbox

You’re calling the play movie function in update… move it to the Start function.

oops, put your movies in a folder named ‘StreamingAssets’ in your project.
