I am trying to embed a video in a beamer presentation. What I am trying is to use \usepackage{multimedia} and in my main code to use the following to add the video:

\begin{frame}{movie}
\begin{figure}[h!] 
     \centering    
     \movie{\includegraphics[width=0.45\textwidth]{1.jpg}}{demo.mp4}
     \caption{caption}
\end{figure} 
\end{frame}

However in my pdf I get just the image .jpg and I cant see or play the demo video. What is my problem here?

Not the right PDF viewer? – AlexG Nov 25 '15 at 08:46
What you mean? I am not using the right pdf viewer? – snake plissken Nov 25 '15 at 08:50
Maybe. Capabilities of PDF viewers largely differ. – AlexG Nov 25 '15 at 10:11
I am using acrobat reader. – snake plissken Nov 25 '15 at 10:13
Which platform, which version? Note that the method the multimedia.sty package implements does not, according to the official PDF specification, support MP4 in A-Reader, but in Okular MP4 video may work. – AlexG Nov 25 '15 at 10:18
Anu suggestion about mp4 video? – snake plissken Nov 25 '15 at 12:00
For MP4 and AR on Win or OSX I suggest the media9 package. See e.g. http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/102600 . – AlexG Nov 25 '15 at 12:06
I ve tried to followed the instructions from the proposed link. When I tried to use the media9 package I got the following error: ! Package l3regex Error: Support package l3kernel too old. – snake plissken Nov 25 '15 at 12:14

I'm voting to close this question as caused by outdated latex version – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Jan 07 '17 at 19:27
