Unity has the ability to make media surfaces. You can set up an object to become a media surface, to stream content from a URL.
For example, you could use a music video url for a club, or have a training video streaming for business purposes.
The browser surface script can only be used for streaming from URLs in the desktop client.
For making a media surface, you will first need to make the 3D object you want to use as a screen.
In the Inspector window, add the Browser Surface component to the item you are using for the screen.
This will bring up the browser surface script in the inspector window.
