Got to Project > File Layout, and add the video player program to your project. You want to copy it to the root, which can be done like this:



Open the script editor on a tab where you want to play the file, and start the Action Wizard:



Select the "File.Run" action, because you want to run a program.



Now select the program you wish to run. Click on the "Browse" button, hidden at the end of the line:



Navigate to the root of your project, by first clicking "My Project" in the left pane, then clicking the "Up" icon until you reach the CD root folder.



Once you reach the root folder, select the program you wish to run:



Now set the path to the video file you wish to open with the player as the argument, unless the program requires additional options/switches. Once done, click Finish.



You should have now a working Lua script which opens a certain video file using an external program, found in the root of the project.
