Description

UnityWebRequestA UnityWebRequest properly configured to download an audio clip and convert it to an AudioClip.

Remarks

This method creates a UnityWebRequest and sets the target URL to the string
uri
argument. This method sets no other flags or custom headers.
This method attaches a DownloadHandlerAudioClip object to the UnityWebRequest. DownloadHandlerAudioClip is a specialized DownloadHandler. It is optimized for storing data which is to be used as an audio clip in the Unity Engine. Using this class significantly reduces memory reallocation compared to downloading raw bytes and creating an audio clip manually in script.
This method attaches no UploadHandler to the UnityWebRequest.

Examples

using UnityEngine;using UnityEngine.Networking;using System.Collections;public class MyBehaviour : MonoBehaviour{ void Start() { StartCoroutine(GetAudioClip()); } IEnumerator GetAudioClip() { using (UnityWebRequest www = UnityWebRequestMultimedia.GetAudioClip("https://www.my-server.com/audio.ogg", AudioType.OGGVORBIS)) { yield return www.SendWebRequest(); if (www.result == UnityWebRequest.Result.ConnectionError) { Debug.Log(www.error); } else { AudioClip myClip = DownloadHandlerAudioClip.GetContent(www); } } }}
