Media automatically begins playing when made visible in studio mode

Hello there,

I've been using OBS for several months now in studio mode. Today, I added a prerecorded mp4 video to my sources, but whenever I make the source visible (by clicking the eye icon), the video automatically begins playing and automatically starts on the program side of things. When I click the eye icon, it automatically stops. None of the other mp4 files I've added behave this way....I click the eye icon to make them available, then when I click the Transition button, they begin playing in program. I've tried deleting and readding the video. I've tried restarting the software. I've tried to compare the OBS settings for the mp4 file to those of other mp4 files in other scene collections I use, and I can't find anything different. Anyone have an idea why this would be behaving this way? Thanks!

Figured it out....had put the mp4 into an OBS group/file folder; when I took it out from there, it started behaving normally. Just posted this here to help in case anyone else ever had the same issue.
