Loading a movie at runtime and file location
Hey y'all.
I'm doing a project using movie textures, which is mostly done. However, one of the requirements is that the user must be able to have a folder to set his own videos to be loaded by the application.
I already managed to load videos at runtime using WWW class.
IEnumerator Start () {
//Debug.Log(Application.dataPath);
//Debug.Log(System.Environment.GetFolderPath(System.Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments));
movie = renderer.material.mainTexture as MovieTexture;
string path = Path.Combine(System.Environment.GetFolderPath(System.Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments), "cat.ogv");
// www = new WWW ("file://c://cat.ogv"); <-- works
www = new WWW("file://c://Program Files (x86)/cat.ogv"); //<-- won't work
while(!www.movie.isReadyToPlay){
yield return www;
}
movie = www.movie;
renderer.material.mainTexture = movie;
}
Problem is that I tried setting manually a folder on My Documents. It won't work. Then I tried setting a folder on the built project. Won't work.
I've been searching for quite some time (hence the commented Application stuff) but couldn't quite figure out why it won't load the file. I imagine it is a permission thing(?), because it will load files on C: and public users folders, but not anything beyond.
*edited the code to better explain the issue
I also want to achieve the above function to load a video by its path at runtime. Have you got the solution?
your video must be ".oggtheora" file if you dont have that convert it in it with "MiroConverterSetup"
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class movies : MonoBehaviour {
public MovieTexture movTexture;// Use this for initialization
void Start ()
{
renderer.material.mainTexture = movTexture;
movTexture.Play();
movTexture.loop = true;
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update ()
{
}
}
$$anonymous$$y video is .oggtheora. The question is not making the video play (it already does), but loading its path somewhere on disk and loading on the script.
yes ,it is done ,while you check the loaded vedio www object .I get the same problem , and find a method to make it can play ,but that look like very unbelivivable , just Add a MovieTexture Tem value to save the movieTextrue ，like this： MoveTexture mt;
IEumarator xxxx() { www w = new ("xxx"); yield return w; mt = w.movie; yourPlayMaterial.texture = mt; mt.Play();
}
