Video links are not working

Question

Hello there, we are trying to link a video file, not embed it, in a pdf and is not working.

We've done it a million times and this is a bit strange. Our process is that we create a folder we place the pdf and then we link videos in it from a specific folder. Once we click on the link the .mp4 file opens in quicktime. However since 2 days ago, this is not possible, can somebody help, we have a big presentation tomorrow and can't miss this feature

Thanks for reaching out. As described above, video links are not working, correct?

We tried reproducing the issue and its working fine on our end. Would you mind sharing some more information for a better understanding:

Are you getting any error message/code while linking and playing the video? Please share the screenshot of the same .
What is the workflow or steps you are doing to add a video link?
What is the version of the Adobe Acrobat DC installed on your computer? To check the version of the application please go to Help > Click, About Adobe Acrobat DC.
Please check for any missing updates and try updating the application. Go to Help > Check for Updates. To know more about the latest version available please use the link - https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/ReleaseNotesDC/index.html
