A URP-optimized transparent video player with chroma-key controls and essential shader effects including hologram, glow, dissolve, and particle greetings. Perfect for UI, VFX, and sci-fi visuals.Unity does not natively support true transparent videos—transparency typically appears as a black background unless complex custom shaders or multi-pass video methods are used.Transparent Video Player & Shader Collections solves this problem by providing a ready-to-use, optimized transparent video playback system built specifically for URP.This plugin enables transparent video playback through a custom shader-based pipeline, real-time transparency control, chroma-key background removal, and a set of additional visual shader effects.It also includes a curated collection of essential shader effects with demo scenes for quick and easy integration.Works on URP only.RequirementsUnity Render Pipeline: Universal Render Pipeline (URP)Platform: Any platform that supports Unity VideoPlayer and URP shadersUnity Version: 2021.3+ recommendedKey FeaturesTransparent Video PlaybackPlay transparent videos directly in Unity using a custom shader solution—no dual-video method or external tools required.Chroma Key Background RemovalRemove black, green, or any solid background using adjustable key color and threshold controls.Two Playback ModesMaterial ModeRenderTexture ModeHologram Shader EffectApply sci-fi style hologram visuals to any 2D or 3D object.Glow Effect ShaderAdd soft, customizable glow outlines for UI or 3D elements.Greetings Effect (Particles + Shaders)A particle-driven greeting animation where the shape sprite can be changed for unique results.Dissolve Effects CollectionIncludes:Standard DissolveObject Rebuild (reverse dissolve for construction-style effects)Easy IntegrationReady-made drag-and-drop prefabs with minimal setup.Demo Scenes IncludedEvery shader effect includes a complete demo scene.URP OptimizedLightweight, fast, and fully compatible with mobile devices.Pipeline: Universal Render Pipeline (URP only)Playback: Shader-based transparent video using RenderTexture or Material modesControls: Adjustable key color, threshold, and transparency for chroma-key removalIncludes Shaders:Transparent Video ShaderHologram EffectGlow EffectGreetings Effect (Particles + Shader)Dissolve & Rebuild DissolvePerformance: Lightweight, mobile-friendly, optimized for UI & 3D objectsCompatibility: Unity 2021.3+, all VideoPlayer-supported formats (MP4, MOV, WebM)This package includes documentation and promotional materials generated with AI assistance (ChatGPT, DALL·E).
