path | Filesystem path to the movie file. |
bgColor | Background color. |
controlMode | How the playback controls are to be displayed. |
scalingMode | How the movie is to be scaled to fit the screen. |
Plays a full-screen movie.
Note that player will stream movie directly
from the device storage, therefore you have to provide movie as a
separate files and not as a usual asset. You will have to create a
folder named StreamingAssets
inside your Unity project (inside your
Assets folder). Store your movies inside that folder.
Unity will automatically copy contents of that folder into the
application bundle.
Calling this function will pause Unity during movie playback. When
playback finishes Unity will resume.
The first parameter, path
, can be a network-based URL. The function
will detect that by looking for a "://" substring that follows the
protocol name.
On iOS, Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie
internally uses MPMoviePlayerController
object to play movies. Therefore, you should expect the same behavior
and the same supported formats. MPMoviePlayerController supports any
movie or audio files that already play correctly on an iPod or iPhone.
For movie files, this typically means files with the extensions .mov,
.mp4, .mpv, and .3gp and using one of the following compression
standards:
H.264 Baseline Profile Level 3.0 video, up to 640 x 480 at 30 fps.
Note that B frames are not supported in the Baseline profile.
MPEG-4 Part 2 video (Simple Profile).
Calling this function will initiate a transition that fades the screen
from your current content to the designated background color of the
player. When playback finishes, the player uses another fade effect to
transition back to your content.

On Windows Phone 8, Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie
internally uses Microsoft Media
Foundation for movie playback. On this platform, calling Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie
with full or minimal control mode is not supported.
On Windows Store Apps and Windows Phone 8.1, Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie
internally uses XAML MediaElement control.
On Windows Phone and Windows Store Apps, there generally isn't movie
resolution or bitrate limit, however, higher resolution or bitrate movies
will consume more memory for decoding. Weaker devices will also start
skipping frames much sooner at extremely high resolutions. For example,
Nokia Lumia 620 can only play videos smoothly up to 1920x1080.
For these platforms, you can find list of supported formats here:
