# deviceName

> Set this to specify the name of the device to use.

## Definition

* **Type:** Property
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.AudioModule

```csharp
public string deviceName { get; set; }
```

### Remarks

This only has an effect when set while the camera is not running.

**Note:** If you want to use WebCamTexture to get the camera stream from a device connected through Unity Remote, you must initialize it through the constructor. It's not possible to change the device using [WebCamTexture.deviceName](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/webcamtexture/devicename.md) from regular to remote devices and vice versa.

### Examples

```csharp
// Sets the device of the WebCamTexture to the first one available and starts playing it
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    void Start()
    {
        WebCamDevice[] devices = WebCamTexture.devices;
        WebCamTexture webcamTexture = new WebCamTexture();

        if (devices.Length > 0)
        {
            webcamTexture.deviceName = devices[0].name;
            webcamTexture.Play();
        }
    }
}
```
