Using the Video object, the resulting video is playing correctly, but the "seeking" function does not work. I mean that clicking on various point of the advancing bar, the video still continues from previuos point, and therefore you cannot choose to view or re-view the part you are interested in. Only clicking on the very beginning of the advancing bar (point zero), the video start againg from this point.
Also using the Html Code Object the result is the same.
To be noted that using the same html code outside Website X5 the video is playing correctly and the "seeking" function is working correctly.

Hello. I just checked the Video object with this example. Everything is working fine. I can switch to different points. I checked it in different browsers. Version - Pro 2021.2.8.
Please send a link to the site page where I can see your problem.What browser do you have?What browser version?

Thank for your answer, but your example involves a Youtube video that has the seeking function embedded. This works also in my system.
The problem is with local videos .mp4 (sorry at the moment I cannot provide a link).
As said, also using the HTML Code Object with this code:
<video width="320" height="176" controls>
<source src="xxxxx.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
the problem is the same, while using this code in a normal html page outside Website X5, the seeking function works correctly.
(any browser, Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and others)
I checked local video.The "seeking" function only works in Firefox. I think the quickest solution is to put the video on YouTube.

Thank you Aleksej for checking and confirming the problem at least in Chrome and Edge.
I think I will continue searching a solution because I really do not want to put the videos on Youtube.
Bye
Try converting videos to different formats and test them.

Yes, I've tried .webm .ogv .m4v .mov: same result.
But, you know ? I tried to upload everything to my web space and everything worked fine !!
So I guess the problem is with my local Web Server (Microsoft IIS) in connection with WebsiteX5.
Now I am happy and I can go on with my project.
Thank you, Aleksej, for your attention and support.
I'm glad your problem has been resolved.
