Why Alpha channel turns black on MacBook Pro M3 Max

I have had the same animated logo file since 2020. I use it to finish a lot of my videos. I just got a 2023 Macbook Pro and when I try to open/play this file on literally any application including on the internet/web browser it shows up black. I have tried everything including trying in After Effects, Premiere, Motion, VLC, Quicktime, playing it on the web, etc. When I put this file which is supposed to be a transparent layer in premiere. It is just a black box. Very frustrating and I don't really know how to solve this issue. Has anyone been able to find a workaround?
