Video Player on Android : black screen
Working on a Unity 3D Android app.
I'm playing videos (Unity VideoPlayer) on a Skybox.
It works well on half the Android devices I tested, the other half render a black screen and I'm supposing the VideoPlayer doesnt even start since I'm not hearing the sound of the video.
It seems pretty random on what devices it works or not. Cant seem to rank them by Android version. It works on some phones and on some tablets. The only common thing is that it doesnt work on Samsung devices.
The logs show no errors. I tried modifying Graphics API.
I'm on Unity 2018.1.3
Thank you !!
did you removed the autographics api? and removed vulkan? since its not supported. take into account that:
Support for resolutions above 640 x 360 is not available on all devices. Runtime checks are done to verify this and failures will cause the movie to not be played. as said in the documentation, is anything shown in the logcat?
Ok sooo, Your answer helped me a lot. On some Androids, video is not supported above 1280*720. That's what it was. Thank you mate
