I am not sure, I am also a beginner, but I would use setUp() function and write `img=loadImage(“data/bg20.jpg”);` in it

No imports are nescessary. Just having the file in the data folder is enough. Should work. Try another image. Is the file name exactly the same? What Android version has your phone?

@clay21 === loadImage() works (used like @noel said); either a problem with your image (i dont think so but…) or with permissions (with MM if needed they are asked on runtime) or with the folder where you put your image. As for video it is another story and open a new post for this topic (and begin to search the forum or the @noel repo.)
