video_get_status always returns video_status_preparing #8474

Closed patchuby closed 3 hours ago

patchuby commented 1 day ago

Description

Updating the engine from 2024.2 Video playback doesn't seem to work anymore. I'm pretty much using the exemple code for video playback in the manual (Draw Gui event for obj_sceneManager starting at line 13. The video_get_status() calls always return video_status_preparing so nothing gets drawn to the surface.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Select DevMode as config and add attached save file in "C:\Users[user]\AppData\Local\Chronique_des_Silencieux" to save time.
  2. Launch game and CTRL+MAJ+C to bring up console
  3. Type "movie_play blancheEnquete", it should normally play the included file "movies>blancheEnquete.mp4"

Might be related to #8451 though in our case the playback never starts and I don't see any outstanding message in the output

Unfortunately not related. I have put a fix in and I'll include a simpler sample for QA to reproduce in - Note for QA - video should play automatically in the enclosed project, it will stick with a status of 1 in current runtime and not play the video.
