I just tried it and I'm only seeing black boxes in the Blue/Red books. Audio plays fine but there's no video. Played the videos in Windows and they work great.

Same here. Playing in VR with the Oculus Quest 2 via Air Link if that makes a difference.

EDIT: Same happens in non-vr mode as well.

Can you confirm if the videos are in ..\Myst\Myst\content\Movies\Windows

The videos are using the H264 codec

They are in that location yes. Is that a codec I should be able to download if I don't have it?

Before downloading anything, I want to see if I can fix this first. I'll check it out tomorrow. I can host one single video as a test. Which one would you like to test?

Preferably one of the two book ones near the beginning of the game. Thanks for looking into this!

This is for when you give the first page in the red book. This video is using MPEG-4 codec.

Yes, that one worked, while the blue one on the other codec didn't.

So it's a codec issue? The H264 videos play for me in Windows, so I believe I have the codec right? I'll see if maybe I need a newer version or something.

Excellent. I will make a new archive that will contains all videos using MPEG-4. I must admit that this is puzzling... Don't know why it works for me but not others...

Is the new download standalone or do I have to download the 6 gigabyte version also? Because the new download is only 286 MB and I wonder if I'm missing something.
