Itunes movies on Surface Pro X

Hello,

I'm trying to watching some purchased movies on the iTunes app. When I press play the movie pops up with the features options and play movie button. When I select play on the movie, the actual movie will not show but the audio plays.

I downloaded one of the movies to see if that would help and the neither the movie nor the audio will play. Please let me know how I can fix this issue. 

Thank you.

Hi AustinBarnum,

Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Community.

How about other video formats that is saved/downloaded on the device, does it have the same issue?

Did you install iTunes app through the Microsoft Store app?

If yes, please run these steps on your Surface Pro X then try to check again if issues persist:

1: Run Surface Diagnostic Toolkit and check Windows Update

2: Run System File Checker Tool in Windows 10

3: Get updates on apps and games from the Microsoft Store

Marrion,

Unfortunately, none of that helped. The other videos work fine. The file for the iTunes movies I wanted to watch on my Surface X are .M4V and I wonder if that is the problem. Can these devices watch .M4V files?
