Is it possible to stream the video from URL in the video playback example ?

Is it possible to stream a video rather than keeping it inside the device itself as used in Video Playback example ??

 

Got the solution from one of the thread from Vuforia itself...

Just giving the video link URL in the path resolved it...

Thank you :)

Yes, it is possible. If you are using Android, you can have a look at the VideoPlayerHelper.java file, in the load function:

there you'll find some code to do that (I report it here for convenience):

Hi Dalee and Alessandro,

The limitation with URL streaming is we cannot play the video on top of the Target and hence it will play on the video player only.

@ Dalee, May be the following post will help you get the link of youtube video's,
