Hi Mariana,

The are two options:

(a) Provide the URL to the videofile as a LinkToURL ui element. So if a user clicks at the link, the video will be played in a new browser window.

(b) Attach the video file to the response and specify that it should open in a new window. This option is only available if you use Web Dynpro ABAP. You need to call method CL_WD_RUNTIME_SERVICES=>ATTACH_FILE_TO_RESPONSE.

Best regards,

Thomas
