Visual studio not working with img,svg,video

[khaliddj]

I’m trying to insert IMG, video, and SVG. But it never shows or doesn’t display it. I spent hours trying to figure out why this isn’t working. it’s causing a lot of problems with my learning ability to making sure things work correctly. I have a brand new mac m1 MacBook air.

Can you post a screenshot of the non-working HTML, along with your project’s directory structure?

so if I would try to play it on Visual Studio Code it would say “the file is not displayed in the editor because it is with binary or uses an unsupported text encoding”

You have this for your src:

src="../components/IMG-0718.mov4 "

Notice the wrong file name, and the wrong path (.. means to go up one directory).

Try this:

src="components/IMG-0718.mp4"

@eelsholz

src=“components/IMG-0718.mp4”

Thank you it worked!
