Hi,
Imaging I have several boxes, each playing a video (the video should be a texture as far as I know).
Each video contains some meta data. based on those data, these boxes of videos should connect to each other by an arc or a line or … . (if 2 video has some same properties in their meta data, its a match and they should connect) .
I am a beginner to Unity Free and I think I need to buy the Pro version for this purpose.
I just need to know if this kind of things are possible in Pro version to decide whether to ask my institute to buy it or not.

1You can definitely parse the metadata of the videos, and have Unity react to that data. As far as I know, there’s no built-in tools to do metadata parsing in Unity, so you’ll have to do the parsing manually. But you have full access to anything C# can do, and reading the metadata of a file is definitely a part of that.
What you would need Unity Pro for in this instance, is Move Textures. Parsing the metadata is just another programming task.
