Hi sharontal10030k6slwe, welcome to Thunkable! 🎉

Be sure to check out [How to ask Great Questions v2.0](https://community.thunkable.com/t/how-to-ask-great-questions-v2-0/2689983/1), the [Community Guidelines](https://community.thunkable.com/t/community-guidelines/78/8), and our [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.thunkable.com/getting-started/get-started) to make the best of your Thunkable Community experience!

To play a video on the video component the video URL must end in .mp4, .mov, etc  
Instead of the video component, you could use a web viewer. Similar post here: [Video - problem (not working) - Questions about Thunkable / Issues / Bugs - Community](https://community.thunkable.com/t/video-problem-not-working/2987775)
