hey @uargb Can you share the code that you're using?

The index.ts in the demo literally reads a file, saves it and sends it back to the number that sent the file so it should work fine.

Hello, I want to send a video (aaa.mp4) that is in the same folder of the server.js file and what am I doing wrong? help please...

// import { create, Whatsapp } from 'sulla-hotfix';
const sulla = require('sulla-hotfix');

sulla.create().then(client => start(client));

var fs = require('fs');

// function to encode file data to base64 encoded string
function base64_encode(file) {
// read binary data
var bitmap = fs.readFileSync(file);
// convert binary data to base64 encoded string
return new Buffer(bitmap).toString('base64');
}
a=base64_encode("aaa.mp4");
var base64str = 'data:video/mp4'+";base64,"+a.toString('base64')
console.log(base64str)
function start(client) {
client.onMessage(async message => {

if (message.body === 'Hi') {

  client.sendText(message.from, '👋 Hello from sulla!');
  await client.sendFile(message.from,[base64str],'aaa.mp4', `Hello this is the caption`)
  console.log()

   //client.sendText(message.from, '👋 Hello from sulla!');
}

/*
console.log(message)
console.log("................................................................................")
console.log(message.mimetype)
console.log("...............................................................")
const mediaData = decryptMedia(message);
console.log(mediaData)
*/
});
}

@Marcoserious why are there square brackets around base64str?
