That's a PNG, not an mp4. Do you have an mp4 you could share and that does not play for you? Note that mp4 is only a container and the video codec inside could be anything.

Please also verify that you have the necessary gstreamer plugin packages installed.

Tried with a random mp4 file and it works fine for me. Sai: please check you have the necessary gstreamer packages.

Sorry, finger slipped. More correct status would be notabug.
