How do I play a video in an exported file?

So, I can play videos when I Run them in a browser (however for some reason the videos don't play if they are too long). I have the Personal License version of Construct 2 and I exported my project to my computer to play the game without needing a browser. For some reason, the video doesn't play. Why does it work in a browser and not when exported? Do I have to do something different? Change a setting? How do I get videos to work when exported to Windows using NW.is? Any help is very much appreciated!

What format are your videos in? Are you supporting more than one codec?

It appears from THIS article that whilst most browsers support the MP4 H.264 codec, chromium - which NW.js uses - does not.

[quote:2tc7a8ed]The MP4 container format with the H.264 video codec and the AAC audio codec is natively supported by desktop/mobile Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome, but Chromium and Opera do not support the format.

After a quick test, I verified that NW.js after export plays webm and ogg but not MP4 H.264.

I actually figured out the same problem myself earlier this week. But thank you anyhow. I got the video to work when changing the video format to Webm and then exporting it. I find it bizarre that such a common and popular format (MP4 H.264) does not work in NW.js. I almost feel as though this information needs to be given on the scirra article "exporting desktop apps with node webkit." --> https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1276/e ... ode-webkit
