If you would like to play a video in the editor you could use the web browser plugin. After you enable it you will be able to find it in the widget blueprints. I hope that this information helps.
Steps:
Create new widget blueprint
Add web browser widget to the designer tab
Resize the widget to suit your needs
Go into the graph
Get a reference to the web browser (see below) and use load URL (this can also be use to load files from your computer at runtime)
You will then want to add the widget to the viewport
Thank you for replying! The only question I have on web widget is whether I can control the video flow as good as the embedded media player (pause, play, jump to x seconds)?
Hello,I have a problem when I use Web Browser to play a adobe flash player video.
At some Chinese webs,It shows that I need to install the flash player,but I can play the video from Youtube.
I’m a Chinese user,so Is there any solution for this problem?

After looking into the issue it appears that the web browser widget does not currently support flash. I have written up a request and I have submitted it to the developers for further consideration. I have also provided a link to the public tracker. Please feel free to use the link provided for future updates.
