How to Play Video on Mac?

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • Hello,
    I'm trying to play a .Mov file on mac from the application following the guide of the iOS/MacOS Video Object that states in the help:

    Set movie URL or filename
    Changes the movie played in the movie player. If the file is embedded in the application bundle, you must add the file to the resource folder in Xcode. You should only state the name of the file in this action (no path). If the file is present on a web server, specify the full URL (starting with Please login to see this link..
    The movie will start at the position indicated by the initial playback time.

    So first I did set in Fusion:

    Then on XCode I added the video.mov in resource folder:

    However I'm getting this

    What I'm doing wrong? edit: I also added the video to the Binary Data.

    Thanks

  • When you add the .mov file into the resources in your project you have to select the "Copy items if needed" option.

    PS: the iOS/Mac Video object is not compatible with the Binary Data.

    Ok I removed the video.mov from the Resources, added again selecting "Copy items if needed", still no luck. I tried both options with Copy items if needed ticked:
    Create Groups
    Create Folder references
    Below it states "Add to targets" MacVideoTest (application name) checked.

  • Ok I'll post here the solution for future searches: The program I was using did output a .mov with different codec than quicktime. Solution was to use another of generating .mov that make sure the codec is actually quicktime and not a mp4 or other mpeg compression. Thanks Yves for your help.
