Pauses the playback and leaves the current time intact.
Use this method to pause the playback of a video. This method sets VideoPlayer.isPlaying to false. To play again, use VideoPlayer.Play.
If you pause the video when the VideoPlayer isn't prepared, this method triggers preparation and shows the first frame of the video.
If you seek through to a different point in the video and then call Pause() before the VideoPlayer finishes preparation, it triggers preparation and shows the frame that was the seek target. For example, if you set VideoPlayer.time to 10.0f and then call Pause(), it shows the frame at 10 seconds.
