I am trying to import a .mov file to processing and when executing the code the following text appears “Could not load movie file data.mov” I have investigated but I cannot find the problem.  
Thanks!

Duplicate thread - see other version

is your movie in a folder named data? check name of file (and its ending?)

it’s case-sensitive
