I tried to use cloud recognition to play a video from the url that is present in  the metadata of image target. the metadata(url) is successfully read and assigned to the videoplayer component. But still it does not play the video. Where am i going wrong.I used unity 2019.4 and vuforia 9.3 .please help.... thanks in advance

would it be possible to also post the meta file that works with the dragon and teapot? I realize now that the way I'm entering the switch case should be corrrect but maybe my formatting in the metafile isn't working.

Hi Rickb ,

I am new in vuforia unity. I want video play in cloud recoganization target. Please guide me for this task. I am using latest vuforia sdk 5-5-9. Give any tutorial url or sample project. In cloud recoganization Sample scene only contains 3d object. Please guide me..

Thanks David, I just realize that the prefab called CloudRecoTarget part of example projet is missing. I tried to create from the standard ImageTarget. I desabled the DefaultTrackbleEventHandle as it seems to be part of the prefab. I compiled the app on ipad but my model don' t desappear when the tracker is away. I don't know if i have to desable the models that i put under CloudRecognition structure. Thanks Richard

Here you go - copy this to a file and name that file SimpleCloudRecoEventHandler.cs

Hi, i dowloaded the Tutorial package that is linked to the ''Creating Cloud Recognition Apps in Unity....'' but down to two third of the tutorial the speaker mentioned that he replaced the CloudRecoEventHandler.cs by the SimpleCloudRecoEventHandler.cs which should been found under Asset/Script directory. Would it be possible to let me know where can i find this because it is not in the package that was out on line. Thanks Richard

 Would it be possible to include the script in a new package for the existing Cloud Reco sample, or to provide a package for the tutorial project to run through? 

Thank you for the suggestion.

We are considering this possibility for the future, but I cannot give any confirmation at the moment.
