Using new Unity VideoPlayer and VideoClip API to play video

Question

MovieTexture is finally deprecated after Unity 5.6.0b1 release and new API that plays video on both Desktop and Mobile devices is now released.

VideoPlayer and Video

Answer 1

By now the VideoPlayer should be updated enough you don't need to write code to get to work correctly. Here are the settings I found to have the most desirable effect:

These settings are:

Video Player:

• Play On Awake: True
• Wait For First Frame: False
• Audio Output Mode: None

Audio Source:

• Play On Awake: True

Don't forget to have a VideoClip for the VideoPlayer and an AudioClip for the AudioSource. The file formats I found to work the best are .ogv for video and .wav for audio.
