Code: Select all

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{fullpage}
\usepackage{movie15}

\begin{document}
\includemovie{0.5\linewidth}{0.5\linewidth}{mymovie}
\end{document}

mymovie is an avi. I've also tried an animated gif of the same content. In both instances, I get

! Package movie15 Error: File `mymovie' cannot be opened for embedding.
(movie15)
Did you forget to set option `url' or `inline=false'?

I'm using MikTex2.8 and the latest movie15 that shows up in the package manager.

Suggestions?

At first you should translate the suggestions you got from the log file (see above). It may be better to follow the descriptions from the beamer manual (Section 14 - Animations, Sounds, and Slide Transitions, p. 125ff).
