    Hello,

    My current project needs playing some 360° videos. As my apk can't be >2Gb I'm now trying to load these videos from persistent data. I edited script and AndroidManifest.xml to have permission to read external data which seems to work (oculus ask for the permission before launching the app) but the video still won't load.
    Yet the path I use is the right one and video is here.

    Do someone have an idea of what I did wrong ?
    Thanks.

    Can you share what the path looks like? I found out that on Android, if you add file:// it doesn't work. If it is your case, maybe remove it.
