    Hi everybody,

    I would like to get my 360 camera live stream, that is RTMP, RTSP or HLS in a 360 video in Unity.

    I have just created an sphere to play the video, with Video Player Component.
    However, this is not solving my problem for the network communication with the camera.
    I still do not know how to include the network stream in the sphere texture. ( Not using Unity Pro )

    Do you have any idea about how to do that?

    at least asset store has few video players that can play those formats, including 360 videos.
    check first if the plugin supports them in your target device too.

    easy option is to stream into youtube from your camera, and play that youtube stream in unity with those plugins.
    alternative option, setup your own video stream server, stream into that from camera, and play from there in unity,
    but last time that i looked, there wasn't many good free RTMP/RTSP/HLS server software available.. (or at least they require quite a bit of setup to get working..)

    *UnityFree has same features these days, so renderexturer, videos etc are included
