    Hi all,
    does somebody know an easy way to disable all inputs (keyboard and mouse)during cutscenes?

    Thank you

    Nope, you'll probably need to make an input manager that handles all of the various input events in the game and then implement it yourself there. If you do google searches or check the asset store, there are probably dozens of implementations of generic input managers that can speed this up a bit, but frankly it's not that difficult to just do it yourself and scale it up as necessary.

    I would just put if(!playingCutscene) {} block into input update, that way you can easily leave out input for skipping the cutscene or pause instead of blocking all input globally.
