Hey guys hope all is well.  
Could anyone figure out why my video is not playing? My button’s code is: `when play clicked set Video 1's play to true` But for some reason it does not play? Is it the video itself or the actual interface and coding?

Please help, thanks!

Is this a published app? Thunkable Live? iOS or Android? I tested on web preview and Thunkable Live for iOS and Android and that block seems to be working just fine.

hi @matt_conroy, i have figured out the problem. The video was too large and exceeded the 50MB storage limit. so i have included another video only being 1 minute long.
