I've set the video as explained here without problems https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=131783&p=364567#p364567 I also set the default lock screen on Plasma to set the same video.

Hi Angel,
It seems like it would be an issue in SDDM anyway and its developers
need to know. I don't think we have different code on SDDM and lock
screen regarding video display (David correct me if I'm wrong), so if
anything upstream SDDM should know about the problem.

On the other hand this doesn't mean that it's not an issue in our user
experience that needs to be figured out. I doubt many people have
tested video on the background + suspending SDDM... :)
