Question Video should fit-inside but is offset after previously turning on VR mode

Hi,

I have an app which displays videos in either 2D or 3D.

There is a separate video player for 2D and 3D. The 2D video player has aspect set to "fit inside". This works exactly as expected unless the user has previously viewed a 3D video and VR mode has been turned on (and off again). Form this point onwards all 2D videos are offset from center in both portrait and landscape. In portrait mode the left side is now cropped, and in landscape mode the video is now left-justified with a black bar on the right.

The Unity documentation for aspect describes it fitting relative to a "destination rectangle". Can I query this rectangle to see if it is changing, and maybe set it back to what it was after exiting VR mode.

Or is there another solution?

 

Thank for the info.

The camera is near plane. Using the info you gave me I can see that indeed after the playing the VR video the pixelRect has changed from (x:0.00, y:0.00, width:1280.00, height:720.00) beforehand, to (x:0.00, y:0.00, width:616.00, height:757.00).

I am trying to reset it explicitly as a workaround, but when I execute the line

Code (CSharp):

1.         _videoCamera.pixelRect = new  Rect(0, 0, 1280,  720);
2.  

and then read it again immediately afterwards it is now (x:0.00, y:0.00, width:616.00, height:720.00), so the height has taken affect but not the width. I have also tried this waiting till the next frame between steps.

I will try to recreate the original issue in a simplified app and report it as a bug.

 

As an update, I have worked around the issue by using different cameras.
