1. Create StreamingAssets folder

If you are using local audio files, create a new folder named ‘StreamingAssets’ under Assets. Put your audio files under this folder. You can skip this part if you are only using remote URLs.

Make sure the folder name is correct

2. Add NativeMediaPlayer to your scene

Import NativeMediaPlayer.prefab to your scene. It's located under Codeqo\NativeMediaPlayer\Prefabs.

Drag it to your hierarchy

3. Configure default settings

Configure NMPSettings using the Editor Inspector.

All default settings can be configured here

4. Configure core components

Inside NMPSettings.prefab, there are 4 objects each representing 4 major components to run this plugin. Each component is CRUCIAL, so take your time and do not skip this step. Configure each inspector values carefully. Visit following pages for more information.\

When adding an album art image, click the texture and check ‘Read/Write Enabled’ under Advanced in the inspector.
