Administering videos in CSPro

[ajparag]

Hi,
I have a query regarding administering videos in CSPro. I wish to administer videos and then ask related questions to the respondent. Is it possible?

[ajparag]

I would really appreciate if anyone can post a reply or a solution for my query.

Can nobody help me with this? Can we or can we not play videos in CSPro?

CSPro cannot play videos. The only way I can think of playing a video is to invoke an external video player from within CSPro using the execsystem function. You can use CSPro to write a command line batch program to dynamically play a video that relates to a certain question then use the execsystem to run that batch program.

p-air is correct. CSPro cannot natively play videos, so your best option is to launch a program that can using the execsystem function, for example:

execsystem('"C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QuickTimePlayer.exe" "My Video.mp4"',wait);
