First,
why are you putting Frames into ERT? LyX has commands for that.
Then, I have renamed one of my MP4 files, since that was not included in
the allegedly MWE and as I had seemed to recall, the multimedia package
doesn't like MP4.
Use MOV, ie transform
VID_20180616_094640.mp4
into
VID_20180616_094640.mov
which does work.
But, since I don't use Acrobat as the defaul reader on the Mac, I
compile on the command line
lyx -f -e pdf5 beamer_media_test.pdf
and then fire up acrobat as Skim and Preview do not display movies. If
Acrobat is your default reader than you might get away with running View
(Alt-R (?))
I have changed to LuaLaTeX as default in the document, by the way.
greetings, el
