MP4 Files on iPhone 18 iOS 17.4.1 wont auto-play I have a list of MP4 files I am trying to get to auto play (next file plays when current file finishes). It was working for a while then stopped playing the next file, just returning the file list. I am using the file folder app on iPhone 13 with a flash drive containing the files. The Auto Play switch is on in the Camera settings. What could be the problem?

While MP4 is generally compatible with iPhones, ensure the specific MP4 file you're trying to play uses a supported codec like H.264 or HEVC.

You can check the file's properties on your computer to see the codec information.
