First of all. You can't play things in voctogui as it its only a frontend. All video processing happens in the core.
Playing a video file is currently only supported for backgrounds / blinders. This means the file will be just looped and used e.g. as a background for the a composite video. In your example it es used as the source for the blinder. The blinder is the video/audio the mixer puts out on its live output if the stream is not live. Means e.g. if there is a break or something.

Playing a video file at a button click is currently not supported but something we want to implement in the future.
