Playing MPEG-4 video on Mac in sequence

[Kulfon]

Dear all,

I was not able to find a solution to this for years. Maybe I am simply not intelligent, but I genuinely do not know how to play multiple MPEG-4 files on a mac in sequence, one after another...like a playlist. I have purchased some tutorials and simply want to add video files to a library and be able to watch one after another and then know where I finished and pick from there. The way I do it is that I open video files one after one and play. There must be a different way?

Thanks!

It's probably easiest to use VLC's "Playlist" feature.

You could also set up a playlist inside the Music app, but that tends to be more complicated.

Concur VLC will do that. Here is a link to VLC site:

Official download of VLC media player, the best Open Source player - VideoLAN

I prefer the video player IINA which automatically plays the next videos of the current folder. No need for playlists or anything.
There are addon solutions for VLC to achieve the same but I have not looked into them on macOS.

EDIT: These are the (default) features IINA offers. Resume only works on a per-file basis.

I like it. Thank you very much!

Import you videos into Music, create a Playlist, put them in the playlist and voila! They will play one after the other.
