Video playback for non-pro iOS dev?

Unity Engine

Hi guys,

Total noob at this and any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’m finishing up a project using unity3d for one of my university classes, and I need some help getting videos to play. I managed to use the trial version of UnityPro along with the iOS development plugin. I managed to get videos to play when tapping on an object using this.

My trial period expired, so now I have the free unity version and I bought the iOS plugin to finish up my project, but now I can’t seem to play any videos using the same code I used when I had the trial version. I know video playback is only for the pro version, but I thought I should’ve been able to play videos since it’s on the iOS device? Am I wrong with this?

I’ve saved my videos in the StreamingAssets folder, and I’ve used Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie() to play the videos. Any suggestions or help?

No audio, but you can work around that.

Hey Crazy Robot, thanks for the help! are there any links to any tutorials about the work around for the audio?

It seems that no video playback is possible unless the Pro version is being used. Is there any one out there that might be able to help with playing a video back without the pro version?
