Hi,
I want to play a sequence of videos or image seqances in UE. I’m using Media Player and Playlist. I’m a beginner, so I apologise if I missed something obvious in my approach.
The Project is to display video/image sequence on a static mesh. You press Enter to start playback of Video 1. If player don’t do anything, then once Video 1 finishes Video 2 will start. However if player press Input Key “3” during playback of Video 1, than Video 3 will start after Video 1 ends.
Once I get this 100% working there will more videos to be included for longer experience.
My BluePrint so far:
Current issues:
-
If I use mp4 videos than there is a short break between videos. It is essential that as soon as one video finish, than next one starts, so currently I can’t use it. I have Prechache File tickbox checked in video files.
Same thing is visible here (Using Media Playlists | Unreal Engine Documentation)
Andrew Hurley created some Media Player Template Project, unfortunately is not available any more. -
When I use image sequence (JPG or PNG) with lowres Proxy Override (960x540) this works, but when I use actual 4k images, then sequence don’t appear at all.
-
At the moment I don’t know how to check the actual duration of video, so rather than that I made sure videos are 10 seconds long and I used 10 seconds delay.
-
Is there away to have multiple MediaPlayers with different media to start exactly at the same time (it doesn’t need to be 4k). Right now when I try to start 3 of them with Key Input but they all start with delay to each other.
I’m on UE 4.18.1.
Thanks
Ace
