Thanks for the help just got it working :smiley:

PSA: DO NOT USE THIS! Clonetrooper stated that if you fully don’t know what you are doing, it could result in corruption of your studio files. So I repeat, do not use this unless you fully know what you are doing (I wouldn’t endorse it either way)

I’ve added a warning label to the title and the start of the post to indicate this, thanks.

It probably needed a warning at the start, so thanks!

I think they prioritized getting it to display on SurfaceGuis for the Bloxys. I’m sure they’ll add ScreenGui support once it’s released. My theory is that uploading videos will either be absorbently expensive for moderation costs, or a beta release to certain developers similar to how UGC was released.

@LargeMakesStuffSpritesheet animations, i not want to use this, as i will use, but i wonder that IF i will to use this in game (i repeat it, IF! I don‘t want to use it, it just was a example), then will this work in game or not?

Spritesheets do work in game, VideoFrames currently do not because its not a public feature

Great tutorial! I have one question though. Does this only work on windows or other devices are also supported? Such as Apple’s Macs.

It works on every PC device. At least, I think.

It doesn’t work on mac, it is a .EXE file.

Hello! I have it all setup the way you have it setup. But I click Play(not run) and I still can not see anything. The Time position isn’t going up either.

Are you sure your VideoFrame’s “Playing” property set to true?

Yes. I followed every instruction Vaelkarr said. Just not working at all.

This is pretty cool. After getting rid of most of the files, my studio files show up like this now:

Uninstall the Roblox Studio Mod Manager, then reinstall Roblox Studio. Worked for me.

Hello! This feature is amazing but I have one quick question, even tho this thread is rather old, is there a “maximum” for the file size? Is there a point where it stops trying to load?

Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa, you say use it at your own risk. Is there a way with out corruption. I don’t want to have anything messed up over corruption using a cool feature. But video frame is so awesome and useful for my games. I might try out in a safer way. Or I can wait till it’s been actually released. I don’t want to risk breaking studio. Would you do this and take the risk?

Also for the fact I have games with thousands of visits and having it corrupted will make my games unplayable and no one will come to my games. All I can say is, “Wait till it’s fully released”. The anticipation will be worth it, once it’s released.
