Video Clips on Tv in Game

[Jlee]

I have been making video clips and putting them on the tv stations to view them during game play by using the movies folder. These files are video clip files. Now i have made some movies which are WMA in nature and they do not play on the tv in the game. I would like to know what types of files can work on the tv in the game or a program which can convert wma files to video clip format.
Thanks in advance

I believe that you need to have the video in .movie or .avi format. As far as I know these are the only file types that are recognized by the game.

I tried the clip as mov. but that didnt do anything but when it was as an avi file it appeared as the other video clips which worked but it just made the tv screen pitch black or white.
I dont understand why its not working
