Video Support
« on: August 30, 2014, 01:27:34 PM »
I think I already know the answer (no), but I figured I would give it a shot.

Is there video support in NGUI?  As in, can I use NGUI to have a full screen video play in my game?  I am aware that Unity has this feature somewhere, but I just like NGUI so much, I was hoping I could do it there.

[On a side note...wow!  NGUI is amazing!]

Hmmmm I would try to capture the video in a RenderTexture and display this RenderTexture in a  UITexture object but I don't know if it will works.

You should be able to use a MovieTexture and assign it to a UITexture

Then you can't play movies.

You *might* be able to get it to play natively fullscreen above the unity view, but that's as far as you'll get with non pro.
