    HI,
    So I am having troubles playing WebM vp8 video's with an alpha channel on Android. I can not use the trans-code method since I need to download the video's from an external source. So is there any way to play alpha transparent video's on android? Or can anyone point in the right direction of how to do Alpha video play back on Android with the standard Video Player?

    I can not do that. As stated above I can not use the transcode method since these video's do not live in the app itself. They will be downloaded from an external source.

    I too have this problem.

    I had it working in Unity 2018 (on a live published app) but I"m upgrading the architecture to 2019 and it's not working.

    I got it working somehow part of the time in 2019 but now it's not working in 2020 again. This is a really frustrating issue.
