Unity's VideoPlayer component doesn't seem to handle changing Time.captureFramerate, that we use for offline rendering. I'm sure we could add support to frame-step it in the future.
Add support for HEVC with alpha on macOS (& iOS if possible)
Describe the bug
When you install the plugin and add the capture from camera component on a gameobject, it look to work in the editor sometime, but once you build it, it won't work. The camera is like all zoomed in and blurry, and once the bug is trigger in the editor, remove the component won't fix it, you need to create a new scene to get rid of it.

sometime without doing nothing except entr/exit play mode the bug don't show up in the editor game view
but all we see in the 'game' is this :
but if the component is remove, then it work again.
Using TXAA causes some sort of ghosting, but FXAA is fine. Presumably this is due to the usage of temporal information for the camera, but we're either clearing that, or invalidating it.
I use WebcamCaptureDemo . I got two cameras , and all of them display normally .
but when i save them , I only got video files that can be used.
Currently capture can be stopped at a specific frame or time. Would be nice to be able to trigger the start of the capture similarly.
This is due to the plugin deinitialising too soon because each capture instance has stopped

Currently because ODS renders in segments, any screen space effects will results in seams. Ideally we need to render ODS with a large padding and only use the inner area. I know there is already some support for this but it needs improving.
Unity seem to have left out 360 Stereo capture support in HDRP.....We'll wait for them to add support for it....Unity 2019.3.4 still missing support for it....

Hi.
I use one of the multi microphones in the window to capture.
Changing the input audio setting of avpro Capture does not apply.
The default microphone of the window is applied.
So to change input audio, I have to change the default microphone of Windows.
I've changed the microphone settings, but the sound comes from the microphone that's set by default in the window.
I have an issue is similar to #29.
I want to use version 4.0.3 soon.
Please let me know your release plan in Unity Asset Store?
I need to decide whether waiting for 4.0.3 or looking for another library.
Hello.

He says using linear space and CaptureFromTexture with R16G16B16A16_SFLOAT causes the capture to be too dark.
He also said then using CaptureFromScreen but that didn't capture correctly...

The macOS version has the same features as the Windows version, but also support for more video and image codecs (MP4/MOV, H.264/HEVC/ProRes, JPG/PNG/TIFF/HEIF), and GPU encoding support!
Supports Unity 5.6.x - 2017.x - 2018.x - 2019.x and macOS 10.13 or better.
We hope to bring the BETA version next, and have the plugin fully launched in the next few weeks.
Looking forward to your feedback :)
Thanks,
Currently post-process effects don't get rendered correct when doing a 360 capture.
We're currently looking to improve this, via rendering in segments and edge blending.
We also need to improve support for the V2 stack. Currently the V2 stack effects don't seem to render when doing a 360 render - probably because it uses a different non ImageEffect mechanism.
Another way to support some of the effects (eg AA, Color grading) would be to add an ImageEffect to our 360 camera that resolves the cubemap images, and that could apply the effects.
With the base package of AVProMovieCapture, the demo scenes seem to export corrupted video files.

Seems like a genuine bug, but I can't imagine why?
He's using Unity 2019.1.10f1 - perhaps it's a Unity issue...
This is due to the writer being asynchronous....
Whenever I use Media Foundation H.264 codec in AVPro Movie Capture Windows 4.0.1, the capture doesn't start (with "Failed to create recorder" error message, see log below). Uncompressed or any other codec works fine and records correct video.

Hi,
I have just purchased the AVProMovieCapture and attempting to get the CaptureFromTexture script working in my scene with audio.
I have the capture working well but the audio isn't working correctly. It sounds like its jumping every half second and is sped up (sounds high pitched). I'm capturing at a Frame Rate of 30fps and the Timelapse Scale is set to 1.
Any reason why this would be happening?
Thanks! Jake
Currently only recording audio from Unity is supported when using the MF H.264 codec. To record from microphone one must use another video codec and record to AVI instead of MP4.
This is something that can be fixed by supporting microphones in the MF implementation.

I just bought AVPro Movie Capture iOS (https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/video/avpro-movie-capture-ios-154169).
What I need to do is screen recording of my AR app and then basically save that recording.
I'm using Unity 2019.2.10f1 with the latest version of your plugin as I just bought it.
Now after integrating your plugin my Vuforia camera is rendering totally black on the screen.
When I remove the plugin files Vuforia camera starts working fine again.
The only error I see related to this is : 2019-12-19 10:57:11.861870+0400 JeepAR[778:228436] ERROR/AR(778) 2019-12-19 10:57:11: VideoBackgroundConfig with screen size of zero received, skipping config step

Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
Unity 2018.1.6f1(both apps) (64-bit editor)
We're using v3.7.4 (June 14, 2019) to generate videos in one of our apps then in another app we're playing it back with AVPro Video v1.10 (July 8, 2019). As soon as the video loads AV Pro's Media Player component shows the time moving as if the video is playing. It is not playing. The component says "Play" like you can tell it to play, but the timer/scrubber shows the time moving. When play is pressed the video plays normal, but when paused the frames do not change, but the timer/seek bar keeps going.
This happens in the editor and in builds.
This only appears to be happening with the videos captured with AV Pro Movie Capture.
AV Pro Movie Capture Settings:
Example capture:

AV Pro Video Settings
To reproduce just download the above video and load it into AV Pro Video player. You should see the seekbar / timer running, but playback is not.
Additionally,
AVPro Movie capture says that it's deprecated in our asset store packages. Not sure why you guys did that. How do we get access to the new module (we only purchased 6 months ago).
Thanks.

Simpler way to set the codec and audio device
Hi,
We switched to 4.2.0 version of AVPro Movie Capture from 4.0.5 version.
We are working on Windows 10 and would like to create 4K videos (with 3840x2160 resolution). We use for that CreateRecorderAVI method from NativePlugin class.
On 4.0.5 version this method had the parameter "bool useMediaFoundationH264" which allowed us to use Media Foundation H.264 codec when creating 4K videos.
On 4.2.0 version this parameter was removed from the signature of CreateRecorderAVI method. How can we still create videos by using MediaFoundation H.264 codec on 4.2.0 version? Is there any other parameter or method to specify that?
Thank you!

Hi,
We are using AVPro Movie Capture 4.0.5 in order to create 4K videos.
We have problems that for videos with many frames content changes, the size of 4k videos are very large - e.g 10 Gb for a 10 min video.
We are using MF H.264 MP4 Codec and we are restricted to this due to compatibility with other internal applications. To achieve this we use the CreateRecorderVideo API call from NativePlugin class with the parameter useMediaFoundation = true.
My question is if we can configure somehow the codec in order to decrease the size of the video file. Is there any possibility to access H.264 codec settings and change them?
Thank you!
This is due to hardcoded codec level 5.2 - need to remove this
