Common errors

When publishing the video, sound is heard but the image remains static

If the video plays with sound but without movement, it is likely that an image was added over it as a separate layer. In this case, the video plays in the background, but only the static image is visible.

Check if the static image is covering the video. If so, remove it or use the "Choose cover" function instead of manually overlaying an image.
