MediaItem

The playlist API is based on MediaItems, which can be conveniently built using methods outlined below.

 

Simple media items

 

A media item can be easily created by calling the following methods:

// Creates a new media item with a file located in the StreamingAssets folder
MediaItem mediaItem = new MediaItem(UriType.StreamingAssets, filename);

// Creates a new media item with a remote url
MediaItem mediaItem = new MediaItem(UriType.RemoteUri, url);

 

A media item with a pre-configured metadata can also be created:

MediaMetadata mediaMetadata = new MediaMetadata();
...configure MediaMetadata
MediaItem mediaItem = new MediaItem(uriType, mediaUri, mediaMetadata);
