How to Play a Video in Unity Without Coding
Greetings, In this Unity multimedia tutorial, learn how to achieve Unity video playback directly on a UI canvas. Discover the ease of using a raw image in Unity and the steps to import a Unity video clip. This guide is perfect for those looking for a Unity no-code video tutorial, making the process simple and straightforward. Note: There are some WebGL Unity video limitations to consider, which we discuss briefly.
However, if you wish to play a video in Unity webgl, there is a link to a tutorial further down in the description below!
In this unity video playing tutorial, we will look at how to play a video on a ui canvas. We can use a raw image as a raw image will accept a render texture as a visual source.
We can import our video that we wish to play into unity by simply dragging and dropping the video into our asset folder. The video we want to play in untiy will become a video clip. We use video clips to play videos in unity.
Next, we need to attatch a videoplayer component to our raw image. The unity videoplayer component is responsible for playing videos in unity. We then drag our video clip into our videoplayer component.
We then create a render texture. This render texture kinda acts like a middle man between the video player component and the raw image. We play a video to the render texture and we have that render texture on our raw image in unity.
Lastly, we drag the render texture onto our raw image and unity videoplayer component.
We then press the unity play button and voila, we have a video playing in Unity. This will not work for the WebGL platform.
