UE4 - Image Plate plays white after packaging, no video, why?

Hi, I used an image plate to play an MP4 video with the sequencer, it works great in the engine (UE4.26), but after packaging the project, I only get a white image, no video.

I thought the problem was that I didn’t added the video to the packaging “specific movies to package” so I added it to the list, I also checked that the video was placed inside the project folders, and it is… But it still doesn’t work after packaging, only in the editor.

Documentation doesn’t explain any packaging settings when using the Image plate

I Included the video path in two ways, but non work:

Please help!

Nobody has answered, but I figure out how to fix the movie problem, here is how:

In “project settings” the path to the “folder” were the movie is, has to be added to “Additional on-Asset Directory to Package”, then, you need to uncheck “Exclude movie files when staging”

Now the movie will be packed.
