Video Player as Game Object Render Texture

[aecroftParticipant]

Hi,

I had a scene set up using the Unity tutorials for rendering a video onto a game object as a render texture (see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KG2aq_CY7pU) The render mode of the video player is set to Render Texture and the game object is given a material where the emission colour and albedo draws from that render texture created for the video.

This set up worked fine with timeline and Cinemachine but in Slate I am running into the error:

null texture passed to GUI.DrawTexture
UnityEngine.GUI:DrawTexture(Rect, Texture)
Slate.HierarchyIcons:ShowIcons(Int32, Rect) (at Assets/ParadoxNotion/SLATE Cinematic Sequencer/Design/Editor/Other/HierarchyIcons.cs:32)
UnityEngine.GUIUtility:ProcessEvent(Int32, IntPtr)

I can see the videos playing in the Slate timeline but not in Gameview.

What am I missing? I’m just learning Slate now so it could be super obvious.

Thanks!

Amy

Hello Amy,

Can you please share the screenshot of the Cutscene in Slate where you are using your Video Player gameobject? (It’s not part of your screenshot)
I can’t tell from the image how are you using Slate to “interact” with the video player, or the exact setup you have there as far as Slate goes 🙂
The error logged (although Slate related) seems a bit irrelevant with the video player or the problem you are facing.
Better yet, if possible for you, can you please send me the scene/project so that I can take a better look at your setup and usage to “support_AT_paradoxnotion.com”? If so that would be great!

Please let me know.
Thank you.
