Introduction 02 How to play multiple Sofdec movies continuously (Mana Player)
In this chapter, you will learn how to play multiple Sofdec movies in succession. To do this, you can use the "Playlist" and "Seamless Play" features.
About Playlists
The function to play multiple Sofdec movies consecutively is called the "playlist" function. The playlist function is explained below.
How to use playlists
In this chapter, we'll show you how to play a Playlist attached to a StaticMesh in a level, with the following steps:
(1) Create a playlist and related assets
Drag and drop the Sofdec file from Explorer into the Content Browser.
This will import the Sofdec file as a "Mana Movie" asset.
This will import all the movies you want into the playlist.
In the Content Browser, select all of your movie assets, right-click on one of the selected assets and choose "Create ManaPlaylist" from the context menu.
If necessary, double-click the playlist to edit the order of the videos.
Next, create a “Mana Player”, “Mana Texture” and “Mana Material”.
This procedure is a review of "Introduction 01 Simple Playback of Sofdec Movies (Mana Player Edition)". Based on that, let's replace the "Mana Movie" asset with "ManaPlaylist".
If it ends up looking like this then you've succeeded.
Next, edit the level blueprint.
This is also a review of "Introduction 01 Simple Playback of Sofdec Movies (Mana Player Edition)". Please note that "Open Movie Source" has been changed to "Open Playlist".
