OGV Freezes After A Few Seconds

[Darkness Void]

I don't know why VX Ace only uses OGV for movies, but it really is frustrating. A friend was able to convert a short animation I made into the OGV format. Tested it with VLC PLayer and it ran perfect. Once I imported it into VX Ace, though, it freezes after 2 seconds. To note, the audio plays and when the animation is over it does return to the game itself.

I can't find much of anything at all about this problem let alone a script for another format. I'm not asking for a script, I am asking if anyone knows why OGV worked outside of VX Ace, but freezes almost immediately once inside of VX Ace?

As well for any tips on how to get it working?

Hmm to me it sounds like you might have the size ratio too big, RPG Maker gets too laggy and can't show the full video unless it is smaller than the set size which is like 640 by 480 I think the guide that comes with more info about that but hard to know for sure without some more info on the the specs of your video file...

While possible a long shot, it could be a problem with your video card or video drivers.

The RGSS-engine doesn't utilize graphics-acceleration, this also should apply for OGV-playback.

You could try a lower bitrate for the video's encoding if it is set rather high.
