I want to add a video as a background "image" in blender 2.8 to match my camera movement. Blender is however only displaying a purple solid (like when the source file cannot be found). I've tried multiple videos, both as mp4s and image sequences (png). All of them do not work.
Background images work as normal, so this issue is only with videos.
Update: Apparently, this issue was just related to my working file. I could just copy all my objects to a new .blend file where everything worked as it should. I would still be interested in an answer though.
