I am very new to making beatmaps and I've tried making my first beatmap today! Everything went great except for one thing, I can't get video backgrounds on my beatmap. I've tried many things to make it work (I got my help from this thread: community/forums/topics/529833) but none seem to do anything. The thread I referenced is a little outdated so maybe that's it? I just want some help because this is literally the last thing I wanna do before making the map for different modes, and I've been trying for maybe an hour now. This is getting a bit frustrating.

I've had this problem once when I started mapping. The solution is to enable background video in Options > Graphics > Detail Settings.

It was enabled the whole time. Any other ideas?

Just search "video" in the osu settings, theres actually 2 toggles for it, one for gameplay and one for the editor.

If they are both enabled amd you did everything else from that forum post u linked, did you actually select the video from the top right of the "Design" menu?

should also check your video properties that may causes it not to show

- the video should not have any audio
- should be 720P or less
- less than 20 MB in size (if the map length is below 2 minutes)
- video format should be in Mp4 or AVI (Mp4 works best in most cases)
