Your question

Is 3rd Order Ambisonic Audio playback supported by AVProVideo within Unity, muxed or otherwise? If so, is there playback support for the MV-HEVC video format with 3rd Order Ambisonic audio? Any tech details surrounding this use case would be appreciated, can't seem to find anything on the subject.

Hi,

3rd Order ambisonic is supported. More info on 360 audio here.

I would suggest trying our free trial version against your use case.

Hello Chris and thank you for this - it's a little confusing as some of the instructions you pointed me to refer to using Facebook Audio 360 settings but as near as I can tell, this method in and of itself still only supports 2nd order. Looking at the audio output options above however, it seems we do have AMBIX 16 channel 3rd order options which will suit us just fine. We'll take your suggestion and run some tests. We are currently in a Unity environment with integrated AVProVideo, so technically speaking we should be able to get this to happen - Will pipe up again if we run into any issues we can't resolve on our own - many thanks again!
