public static method GetMovieTexture(uri: string): Networking.UnityWebRequest;
public static Networking.UnityWebRequest GetMovieTexture(string uri);

Parameters

uri The URI of the movie clip to download.

Returns

UnityWebRequest A UnityWebRequest properly configured to download a movie clip and convert it to a MovieTexture.

Description

Create a UnityWebRequest intended to download a movie clip via HTTP GET and create an MovieTexture based on the retrieved data.

This method creates a UnityWebRequest and sets the target URL to the string uri argument. This method sets no other flags or custom headers.

This method attaches a DownloadHandlerMovieTexture object to the UnityWebRequest. DownloadHandlerMovieTexture is a specialized DownloadHandler. It is optimized for storing data which is to be used as a movie texture in the Unity Engine. Using this class significantly reduces memory reallocation compared to downloading raw bytes and creating a movie texture manually in script.

This method attaches no UploadHandler to the UnityWebRequest.

This method is available only on platforms that do support MovieTexture.

if (www.isError) { Debug.Log(www.error); } else { MovieTexture myClip = DownloadHandlerMovieTexture.GetContent(www); } } } }
