I've searched using master Google, but can't seem to find a definite answer. So, I was wondering if anyone here knew.

The question?

Adding video. Specifically? Format. I've heard you have to add 2 formats. I've heard only a certain one works.

And finally, the real question I'm hoping can be answered. Dimensions. What screen size should the video be?

Any help would be appreciated. And cheers!

The formats for MV are MP4 (h.264 encoded) and WebM.

You only have to add the video in the 2 formats with the same name in case you're exporting to android/ios. If you're exporting for windows and mac, only WebM is needed.

The dimension of your video should preferably be the same as your game window.
Native MV games work in 816x624 pixel resolution. I guess this changes depending on what systems you're exporting for. I wouldn't know because I only work for PC.

Thanks for the help Mirak.
It's the resolution that is getting to me. I want the videos to introduced seamlessly. I suppose the best way would be trial and error. But I'm not quite ready for that yet - so information gathering feels important.

Cheers.
