Ok, so I was having the same issue of the video audio playing but screen was just black when running webgl. Solution for me was to not use the rendertexture method and instead use the VideoRenderMode.MaterialOverride instead. Not sure why this works and just targeting a rendertexture does not since it technically creates a rendertexture at runtime. But at least for my setup it works. Hope this helps others there.

PS: To be precise, I'm talking about loading a video from the StreamingAssets folder, assigning URL to System.IO.Path.Combine(Application.streamingAssetsPath, fileName).

Tried with 2019.3.15f and 2020.1.0b9 but the issue is still there for me. Had to downgrade to 2019.2.21f, working flawlessly there.
Tried both using render texture and material override but it's just black screen. -

It's still not working for me! All I am doing is using the built in Video Player with no scripts . I use URL link it to https://files.myfilesehsekjfb and in unity, bud does not work on ITCH.IO!!! OMG This is so frustrating!
I am not good with code, i am on 2020.1.0b9 which supposedly fixes the issue!! What am I missing?
