Describe the bug Seems h265 encoded video is not working in the editor or viewer for the app making it impossible to add annotations or interactions.

Environment (please complete the following information):

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create an 'Interactive Video'
  2. Upload h265 encoded video
  3. Scurb in the timeline on the player
  4. Sound works, video stays black

Expected behavior Video should play

Screenshots Skipped: black videoplayer

Additional context Arch Linux installed from the pacman package

Thank you for the report! Unfortunately Electron, which Lumi is based on, doesn't support h265 videos, so there's nothing we can do really. (see https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/27943) The only thing might be to warn the user.
