HelloARVideo appears as black on Android

Question

Good day,

Exporting to Kindle Fire 7 (Android 5.1).  HelloARVideo test app runs fine, except that on discovering the targets the 3D geometry appears but with a black surface and no video.

This with Easy AR 2.3.0 and the latest 2018 unity.

When I downgraded to the the most recent 2017 unity, the same Easy AR package worked fine.

My issue is therefore currently resolved, but I wanted to make others aware of the problem and of my solution.

Thank you for a wonderful product.

Can you tell me the specific model of your mobile phone?

Good day,

It is an Amazon Kindle Fire 7 (2015).  It runs Fire OS, which is an Amazon version of Android 5.1.

Answer 2

I'm having the same issue with the most recent Unity (Unity 2018.2.11f1) and a Nexus 5 on Android 6.0.1. I really hoped EasyAR 2.30 would fix that problem, which is now present for at least 5 (!) months ...

The console throws the following error message:

Assertion failed: OPENGL NATIVE PLUG-IN ERROR: GL_INVALID_FRAMEBUFFER_OPERATION: Framebuffer is not complete or incompatible with command
UnityEngine.GL:IssuePluginEvent(Int32)
EasyAR.Augmenter:RetrieveVideoBackground()
EasyAR.ARCameraBaseBehaviour:Update()

Unfortunately a downgrade to 2017 isn't reasonable for my use case. Some help would be appreciated.
