Movie Texture will not play!

Question

Hello!

I have this code attached to a cube with a gui texture. But it will not play! Any suggestions to what I have done wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

var wwwData : WWW; var url : String = "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23413053/walkcyclemesh.mov";

 function Start () {
 wwwData = new WWW (url);
 guiTexture.texture = wwwData.movie;
 }

 function Update () {
 var m : MovieTexture = guiTexture.texture as MovieTexture;
 if (!m.isPlaying &amp;&amp; m.isReadyToPlay)
 m.Play ();

 if(!m.isReadyToPlay){
     GUI.Label (Rect (410, 605, 100, 20), "Loading");

     }

 }

You have those two links...
Here's the code for what I'd personally use:

var url = "http://www.unity3d.com/webplayers/Movie/sample.ogg"; function Start () { // Start download var www = new WWW(url);

 // Make sure the movie is ready to start before we start playing
 var movieTexture = www.movie;
 while (!movieTexture.isReadyToPlay)
     yield;


 // Initialize gui texture to be 1:1 resolution centered on screen
 guiTexture.texture = movieTexture;

 transform.localScale = Vector3 (0,0,0);
 transform.position = Vector3 (0.5,0.5,0);
 guiTexture.pixelInset.xMin = -movieTexture.width / 2;
 guiTexture.pixelInset.xMax = movieTexture.width / 2;
 guiTexture.pixelInset.yMin = -movieTexture.height / 2;
 guiTexture.pixelInset.yMax = movieTexture.height / 2;

 // Assign clip to audio source
 // Sync playback with audio
 audio.clip = movieTexture.audioClip;

 // Play both movie &amp; sound
 movieTexture.Play();
 audio.Play();

}
// Make sure we have gui texture and audio source
@script RequireComponent (GUITexture)
@script RequireComponent (AudioSource)

Obviously the url will change. I'd put this script on the texture, yes, as it does say this returns a texture, so I'd assume that it'd return the movie to the new texture... Comment back if you need more help though.
