Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Yes, as videos cannot be shown through the scoring software set up for displaying the winners of the awards.

Describe the solution you'd like At the event I was at yesterday, the Compass Award and Promote Award were video files, and these two awards were not presented using the software, meaning that these videos and awards were unable to be shown through the scoring software.

Describe alternatives you've considered We were unable to show the videos directly, we were only able to get the audio through putting a microphone to the speaker of the computer. The videos were played as .mp4 to a laptop and played by the laptop to the projector.

Additional context It would be great to upload the .mp4 when inputting scores, so they could be played directly from the scoring software so that the scoring software already set up to the audience can be played without having to switch away from the software to the video.

I second this request, but also want to point out it is a duplicate of #135
