Mobile Movie Texture

Hi again, sorry about that. Took a look after you mentioned checking and while the file was there, the I noticed file size was wrong. Then worked out the wireless was dropping when I had downloaded the file! Bit of a silly mistake really but was half asleep.

Sorry about that, mobile movie texture was working exactly as it should, we were just giving it a malformed file. Thanks for your help and the fast reply!

 

I have a strange problem with IOS - when playing video shortly after start (game starts, shows static splash screen and then starts playing developers logo), colors are all wrong, resulting video looks like grayscale colored with magenta.

I originally thought it's a problem with the video file as all other later in the game work correctly but changing the file that's being played as splash shows same problem... All other videos played later during the game work correctly, on desktop platforms there are no problems whatsoever (didn't try the android yet).

I removed the scene with splash screen and yes, the first video after the start of the game is always broken. Later videos work OK.

Any thoughts why's that? Playing video is made by instantiating a prefab that has mobilemovietexture script attached and contains a plane and camera that's showing the plane (I'm using it only as a full screen video player) - the object is destroyed after video finishes. next video playback is always correct.

 

Can you send me a reproducible sample? Ideally modify the demo project so it has the problem.

Thanks

 

I'll try.. it'll have to wait to the next week though, I'm already packing up for holidays (I was hoping that's something known = some quick fix)

 

Hey Dan Treble,

This plugin looks fantastic, good work. Does your plugin let me grab each 'frame' of the video rather than render it? I've got an encoded ogv video file that I need the contents of to parse, not render.

Thanks,
-Matt

 

Ok, I'm back. I've ripped all but the bare essentials, so this sample just cycles splash screen / developer logo over and over. First playback is bad (it looks like the shader doesn't work correctly for some reason), later are OK. I did some small modifications in MobileMovieTexture (marked as shigor), but it's just audio syncing and image ratio change so it shouldn't matter... If worst comes to worst, I guess I could "fix" it by first playing a single black frame video and then the logo, but I'm curious why this happens and only on ipad... I'd like to know if I did some stupid mistake or if it's another unity black magic so if you'll find time to check it.

The minimal sample can be found at https://www.dropbox.com/s/lgi0cu0h92w4jde/VideoTest.zip

Thanks in advance

 

Hi There,

I'm getting the green screen with Android, full/pro versions of everything. Cant seem to find a work around that works

I'm building/testing on a samsung pro note, latest.

Regards,

Morph.

EDIT: Anyone else find a work around for this?????

 

Still need help with this please....

 

Bump.

I still would love some support. Green screen on Android (samsung pro note 12.2)

Have Pro everything, Full version of your Plugin (paid for)

Runs perfect in editor, on build - Green screen.

I've tried adding a manager script to an active component in scene but that doesn't get any results.

I'm using an .ogv Video File.

Video is in: Streamingassets/Foldername/Video.ogv

Regards,

Morph

 

Got it working.

I added a plane somewhere random in the scene and applied the same process as suggested by Dan in an earlier post.

Worked perfectly. No green screen etc...

Vers:2.0.4

Morph.

 

Hi there guys, Sorry about all the posts. I'm stressing a little.

Has anyone worked out a good way to get the audio to play in sync with the video? I'm not having much success.

 

Hey,

This is something we have used a lot, and its been a mixed experience. We started with a custom script which played the video alongside the audio manually. However, depending on the devices this was run on (iOS, Android, latest gen, old gen) it was difficult to get the audio to match up. We had to delay the video/audio to get it to sync up properly, which can be a huge headache.

More recently we have begun using the MovieAudioController script from this forum, and customised if and when we need to. This script is pretty basic, but caches the video at the start. In OnAwake() the script will play and pause the video, meaning it will not have to "load" as such when you ask it to play. The script also takes an AudioSource and plays this for you when you play the video. This has worked great for us so far, and we have had no issues, but just remember that when playing on older devices you may get a lag between the audio and the video, so some tweaking of timings may be required.

Adam

 

Hi Adam,

Thanks a lot. I'm using latest tech so I'll see how that works out.

Thanks again.

Regards,
Morph

 

Hi again Adam,

I can't seem to find that script anywhere. Any chance of you throwing it up?

Regards,

Morph

 

Sure, bare with me ill grab it

 

Attached. Should be all you need. Make sure you use this to control the video and not the MMT script.

 

Fantastic, I'll take a look.

Really appreciate your time, thank you.

Regards,

Morph

 

Play Mode not working for MMT + Vuforia (webcam)

My project is a combination of MMT videos on Vuforia image markers. If I set up the project everthing works fine, but after saving and re-opening the project my Unity PlayMode isn't showing any webcam stream/video anymore!

The AR Web Cam Behavior script inspector-box states: "Play Mode requires a Unity Pro license!" (which I have...)

The console log states:
Can't add component because class 'PremiumObjectFactoryStarterBehaviour' doesn't exist!
UnityEngine.GameObject:AddComponent(String)
QCARAbstractBehaviour:Awake()

Please help!
I'm using Vuforia 3.0.6 and MobileMovieTexture 2.0.4 and Unity3D 4.5.1f3 on Windows 7 64-bit

 

Hi,

This is nothing to do with MMT, this is an issue you need to raise with Vuforia on their forums. The error would assume that your pro license has an issue. Try and return the license, and then reactivate it to see if this helps. Otherwise please post on the Vuforia forums about this, as its not an MMT issue.

Adam

 

Sorry, but it had something to do with MMT (and Vuforia): the plugins conflict with each other, something with 32- and 64-bit DLL's. Fixed it by copying sourcefiles in the x86 folder!

 

Could you please add a 'set' accessor in MovieMaterials array?

public Material[] MovieMaterial { get { return m_movieMaterials; } set { m_movieMaterials = value; } }

Thank you very much!

 

Hi, installing demo asset and playing it i got pink plane surface on any scene. any workaround to fix it? Thanks

 

Are you using this on Pro?

 

Hi Dan,

I have some issues playing video on iOS. When a video is playing, I see a pink screen.
I try this on an iPhone 3GS with iOS 6.1.6 Some tester reported the same issue on an iPad 3 version 6.1.3
At the same time, iPhone 4s with ios 7.1.1 works fine.

When testing the game on my iPhone 3GS I get the following messages on xcode.

My Unity version is 4.5 free.
I use MMT 1.1.7

 

Hi Dan,

I have some issues playing video. When a video is playing, I see a pink screen/surface too.

Unity3d Pro 4.5.0f6
MMT 2.0.4

 

In our project, using Unity 4.5.1, we experienced some problems playing multiple videos. As soon as one video starts playing, the other gets delayed by the time that the first one played.

 

Hi, I've got this working in a few minutes, thanks, was really easy to set up.

However, I haven't found an easy way to set up 2 planes with the same material that could play 2 different videos. I'd need a few planes that would each play another video. Would there be an easy way to do this, or would I have to create another MMT component and recode some stuff, so it would apply to a specific texture, instead of looking up materials?

Kind regards,
Thomas

 

Hi mimminito,

The MovieAudioScript you shared, can u explain more on how to get the script running?

Thank you in advance

Cio

 

Hi,

I attached it to a GameObject, and dragged on the various components into the inspector fields. Then you cann Play, Pause or Stop on that script, and it just works!

 

Hi,

how do you manage to attach the script on any gameobject? i've tried attaching it to plane, yet it say the script has not finish compilation. I attached screen shot file of my project.


Thank you

 

There is an issue with your project then, and Unity has not finished compiling the scripts. Try going to Assets->Refresh, or restart Unity.

 

Whenever i include the script on my asset, an error occur saying MobileMovieTexture could not be found. Is is something to do with where i place the script? I placed the script on the same folder as the mobileMovieTexture.

Tried refreshing & restarting yet no succession whatsoever.

Thank you for your guidance.

cio

 

if you are using the latest MMT I think you need to add a using statement for the package at the top of the script.

 

i'm using MMT 2.0.4, what kind of using statement i need to include? can u guide me on how to add the script? is is something like this?

AddComponentMenu("MobileMovieTexture")

 

No, you need to add the namespace that the MMT package is inside, I do not have it in front of me, but if you check the MobileMovieTexture file, you will see there is a namespace definition near the top. You will need to add "using <namespace>;" into the top of your class to get it working.

 

I've manage to get the file working by including the namespace MMT, yet another error occur. it shows PlayAutomatically error, do you know how to resolve this?

Thank you for your effort

 

You need to define a property for playAutomatically in the MMT class.

 

Does it mean i need to modified the MobileMovieTexture script? can u show me how to do it? I'm so sorry to bother u so much, am a newbie that just started using unity,

 

Yes you do need to. Im I cannot post the code right now as I am busy and dont have the scripts in front of me, but if you check the MMT script then you should be able to see how the properties are defined.

You say you are new to Unity, are you new to programming as well? If so, I would advise you have a read up on C# programming to understand the principles first.

 

Thank you for the advise. I will seek further on the basic principle. Grateful for all the help received.

Regards
cio

 

No worries. If I can, ill post up what you need to do later, but I am quite busy at work so I cannot grab the code right now.

 

Hi,
I'm new on Unity, I start with this asset for a project, but sounds doesn't play when I watch the video ? Do you know why ?
Whereas the movie file in the demo have sound

 

This plugin does not support audio playback. You have to do this yourself manually. Read through this thread from the beginning and you will see people explaining how to do this.

 

Hi,

I have a intermittent complete freeze when I first Play a movie in Unity3D OSX Editor 4.5.2.
It happens like 50 % of the time some the same test, which looks like a thread related problem. If the play starts successfully then the movie is played correctly (as well as other movies later). It also works well on iOS and Android.

We are using YCrCbtoRGBSplitAlpha in a 960x1024 movie ( the original size of the movie is 960x512).
The movie is set by script :

movie.Path = "Movies/"+name+".ogv";
movie.LoopCount = 0;
movie.Play();

The MobileMovieManager is put on an always active MonoBehaviour in the scene and the play occurs in a coroutine way after scene loading.


From unity log :

Hi Dan, I'm seeing the exact same problem with the exact same error message as dm_reflekt. At the moment it's impossible for us to run our game in the editor or a Win standalone build. Have you had a chance to look into it?

We're targeting iPad, but developing mainly on Windows. To make it easier to troubleshoot, I reduced to a demo scene that will repro the crash. iPad and Mac don't seem to crash, so it stands to reason it's a Win only problem.

EDIT: We're using MMT 2.0.4 on Unity 4.3.3

Thanks
-Dean

 

hey dan i have been having a problem with this for a while, and i cant get it to fix. I even put the file into the folder.
DllNotFoundException: theorawrapper

danny7 : make sure there is a Assets/Plugins/x86/theorawrapper.dll file. Also you must use Unity Pro for dll to be loaded.

Don't know if this will help, but I had the same problem when I imported the asset into a Unity 4.5 project. However when I imported the asset into a Unity 4.3.4 (this was the version i tried) project first, then opened the project with Unity 4.5, the video could play in the editor.
