How to play movies?

[UglyMonkeyb02]

RPGMaker MV has a feature to "play movies" however, I can't get it to work,
I have put 3 of the same Animated image into the Movies Folder, one is a GIF, one is a Webm, and the last is a MP4
When I go to make an event and " play movie" not a single one shows up

MV only supports webm and Mp4 (has to be H.264 encoded from my understanding). GIF are not supported by default. Check your mp4 codec. As for your .webm video, double check the format as this should work.

Also, check the files' name. Networking rules doesn't allow for spaces in filenames. So if you have a video called "Movie of Dogs.webm", you have to change the name to something like this: "Movie_of_Dogs.webm"

what @MushroomCake28 says, as a tiny adjustment, MP4 isn't required if you do not go mobile,
if you go mobile, you need both webm and mp4, same is true for SE, ME, music's.
