You're using layer="0"; that's the deepest layer, so the video is probably hiding behind your marquee.

vlc is currently not supported by RetroFE, but the format is not the issue.
Don't change the monitor parameter (1 seems to be the right one for you); change the layer parameter.

Looks like I added the monitor parameter to a lot of tags already, but not to <video>. I'll see if I can add that ASAP.

Unfortunately, I don't have a second monitor ready to test this with. Would you mind giving it a try to see if it solves your issue?

Fantastic !!! -after a super quick test I'm happy to report its working well.   :)
test code:  <video src="video/intro.mp4" layer="19" height="420" width="1920" alpha="1" monitor="1" volume="0" y="center" x="center" yOrigin="center" xOrigin="center">
