Assets Tag

Working with the assets tag <a-asset>

To use images or videos several times, it is possible to place them in the <a-asset> tag. All details are in the documentation. The tag supports the four following items:

<a-asset-item> – Miscellaneous assets such as 3D models and materials
<audio> – Sound files
<img> – Image textures
<video> – Video textures

<a-assets>
				<video
					id="videoWatch"
					src="videos/video_pruefung.mp4"
					loop="false"
					autoplay="true"
				></video>
				<img
					id="imagePoki"
					src="images/bulbasaur.gif"
				>				  
			</a-assets>
			<a-box
				id="box_square"
				position="-1 0.5 -3"
				rotation="0 45 0"
				width="1.82"
				color="#FFF"
				src="#videoWatch"
			></a-box>
			<a-image
				id="box_rect"
				position="0 1.25 -5"
				height="1"
				width="6"
				rotation="0 45 0"
				color="#FFF"
				src="#imagePoki"
				repeat="6 1"
			></a-image>

<a-assets>

<video

id="videoWatch"

src="videos/video_pruefung.mp4"

loop="false"

autoplay="true"

></video>

<img

id="imagePoki"

src="images/bulbasaur.gif"

</a-assets>

<a-box

id="box_square"

position="-1 0.5 -3"

rotation="0 45 0"

width="1.82"

color="#FFF"

src="#videoWatch"

></a-box>

<a-image

id="box_rect"

position="0 1.25 -5"

height="1"

width="6"

rotation="0 45 0"

color="#FFF"

src="#imagePoki"

repeat="6 1"

></a-image>

Please note that – as in HTML – <video> and <audio> tags need an end tag, but not <img>.

Audio and video assets will block the scene if we set preload="auto" or preload="true"
