Gotcha, just making sure! Here’s one that I used, but I downloaded several from the same source just in case and none of them work after trial and error, so I hope to nab a fix at some point! Thanks again!

I’m on Windows 10, as well! I tried deleting the files and redownloading just to see if that would fix it, but no luck, I’m afraid. Here’s a gif of what happens when I try:

Oh, geez, I appreciate you going through all this hassle, haha! Here’s what I’ve got:
The only difference my tech-illiterate eyes can make out at a glance is some discrepancy between the respective versions. I’ll try looking up how to update(?)/correct these in the meantime. Thank you again for walking me through this and sorry for the trouble!
I’m not sure why it isn’t working with your codecs (which are more up-to-date than mine).
I did get a response from the author of Sciter though, and they recommended trying to load a video format supported by Windows by default. So I wonder if a WMV (Windows Media Video) file would work for you?
FunWrite only recognizes videos with .MP4 extensions at the moment, so just rename the extension from .WMV to .MP4 to get it to show in the dropdown (I confirmed this works on my computer).

That worked, thank you so much! I just took the files I had, ran ‘em through an online converter and redownloaded them again and it worked like a charm! Bit of extra faff, but hey, as long as it gets it up and running. Now I’m off to do my sprints, thanks again for the help!
