Cant play video in MAUI

Hey I'm trying to play a background video in MAUI, my underlying code is:

<toolkit:MediaElement x:Name="BgVideo" Source="Resources/Raw/video.mp4" ShouldShowPlaybackControls="False"
          ShouldLoopPlayback="True" Aspect="AspectFill" ShouldAutoPlay="True"
          HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand"/>

<toolkit:MediaElement x:Name="BgVideo" Source="Resources/Raw/video.mp4" ShouldShowPlaybackControls="False"
          ShouldLoopPlayback="True" Aspect="AspectFill" ShouldAutoPlay="True"
          HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand"/>

however it doesn't play the video if i change the path to a URL it works fine, is my path wrong ?
