The behavior on each platform is as follows:

Platform	Behavior
STYLY Studio	Video does not play A 3D object indicating the shooting area is displayed
Web environment other than Studio	Non-supported dialog box appears
AR	Video is played (autoplay, autoloop)
VR	Video is played (autoplay, autoloop)

How to use

This section explains how to use custom assets for volumetric video playback.

First, select External media in STYLY Studio.

Next, select HoloStream.

Select Play simply HoloStream.

Apply the volumetric video URL and press the “ADD TO SCENE” button.

This step will place an object in STYLY Studio at the same scale as in Volumetric Capture Studio.

Since volumetric video cannot be played in the WebGL environment, the scale of this object is used to position the other 3D objects.

The arrow will point in the frontal direction, and the volumetric video will be played.

The above process enables volumetric video playback in AR/virtual reality (VR) modes.
