Unity Crashing on Video Import

Questions & Answers
1

Hi,
I’m using Unity 4.6 on Mac OSX Mavericks.
Whenever I try to import a video asset into my project Unity crashes.
I am sure that my video assets are valid, nothing exotic just H.264 Quicktime .mov videos.

Any suggestions?
Am I missing something? I have tried this both by dragging the video asset into my project tab and also by using the import dialogue.

thanks.

I found that by exporting my .mov to .ogg video before importing worked. I guess the crash is caused by Unity not handling Quicktime conversions very well on it’s own.

This was a bit of a hassle and Unity isn’t clear on not really being able to easily convert a .mov.

Bizarre.
