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?

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);
