I think when you solve the xtras problem, the problem of it not being able to find the file will go away. I remember a project of mine where this happened; when the QT xtras weren't included for whatever reason (and even though it normally worked fine) because the xtras weren't there, it couldn't find the video file.

That means your video xtras aren't being initialized. If you're intending to use QuickTime to play the video, make sure that all three QT xtras are included with your movie (modify/movie/xtras).

No matter what I change, it always wants to look for the file in its absolute location (C:\blah blah) and not its relative location like it should. All I end up with is the red box and x that shows where the video should be. I cannot change the fileName in the property inspector (It always goes back to C:\etc\etc) I even tried putting the following in "on StartMovie": a = the moviePath b = "DV_Content\PU_Intro.avi" c = a & b set the fileName of member "PU_Intro" to c where "PU_Intro" is the cast member and "DV_Content\PU_Intro.avi" is the filename and relative location to the .exe.
