I was wondering if it's possible to show videos via a python GUI -- preferably quicktime videos, but any format would be a start.

If it's not possible to play them from within the GUI, is it possible to at least have the person press a button that will automatically open the correct player and play them?

Yes it is possible. In my attempts to learn Pygame I read somewhere that you can use it to make a media player. Im not sure what other methods are available however.

os.system("vlc movie.mov")
