4) Configuration Steps

Manually select the compatible graphics APIs in the "Player Settings" section of Unity for each platform.

Android Platform:

• To allow the application to have internet access for streaming videos, select the "Require" value for the "Internet Access" option in the Unity player settings.
• Set "Write Permission" to External (SDcard)
• Make sure to set a specific app ID under "Package Name" as required by Unity before compiling your application.

iOS Platform:

• To view HTTP videos, enable "Allow downloads over HTTP" option.
• After compilation, in XCode make sure to set a "Signing Team."
• Under embedded binaries, click the "Plus" button and add:
  • widevine_cdm_sdk_release.framework
  • WidevineIntegration.framework

A quick and easy way to enable these settings is by using the helper component (NexEditorHelper.cs). If the helper component NexEditorHelper.cs is attached to any GameObject, it will include a graphics UI to auto detect any conflict regarding the graphics API, and it will promptly solve it.
