    I'm still trying to understand why cloud build don't play video using native player.
    If i build apk locally everything works. well.

    here is a log cat from device when error appears
    Code (CSharp):
    1. 03-30 11:49:01.583    129-27713/? E/DrmMtkPlugIn﹕ onOpenDecryptSession() : failed to parse dcf file.
    2. 03-30 11:49:01.606      130-130/? E/FlvExtractor﹕ [ERROR]:Not an FLV file!!!
    3. 03-30 11:49:01.606      130-130/? E/FlvExtractor﹕ [ERROR]:[FLV]mtk_flv_extractor_recognize OUT

    6. 03-30 11:49:01.607  18709-18709/? E/MediaPlayer﹕ Unable to to create media player
    7. 03-30 11:49:01.614  18709-18709/? E/MediaPlayer﹕ pause called in state 1
    8. 03-30 11:49:01.614  18709-18709/? E/MediaPlayer﹕ error (-38, 0)
    9. 03-30 11:49:01.644  18709-18709/? W/MediaPlayer﹕ mediaplayer went away with unhandled events
    10. 03-30 11:49:02.426  18709-18726/? W/libc﹕ pthread_create sched_setscheduler call failed: Operation not permitted
    It's strange because i have mp4 file, but it show something about FLV

    Looks like i'm not alone. here is the same unsolved problem http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/921345/android-handheldplayfullscreenmovie-not-working-fr.html

    One more here, just to confirm it is a widespread issue, apparently. Building with latest 4.x stable on CloudBuild. Local builds all play video fine.

    Well, it was worth a shot!

    I am having this exact same issue with building to iOS. Has there been any resolution? All of our apps include video, so if this cannot be fixed, it renders this service pretty much useless for us :(

    David,

    I know that playing video is only available in the "pro" versions of Unity (which I have). Could that be causing the issue somehow?

    I won't say no, as it might be possible, but we look currently into other directions. I hope we find a solution soon. We'll keep you up to date!

    Hi David! Still no love on building an app that runs video. It builds and runs fine locally, but not from here. It's also started missing 2d assets that I know are on the SVN, but never seem to make it into the app when built from here.

    Which file types do you use for the video. Which 2d assets are gone missing? Have you made a proper checkout to see if the files are checked out properly?
