I have an m4v video that I would like to use as a background. Quicktime plays it just fine but it's grayed out in the Zoom file selector for backgrounds. What's going on there?

Hi @SimonTSorcerer
M4V video files are not supported by Zoom for use as a virtual background. As noted in this article, background videos must be a MP4 or MOV video file. To use this particular video, you would need to change the file type with some 3rd-party video converter or editing software.
Hope that helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.
