Hi,
We have programmed a SRC task (including two short video clips). When running the task on our computers, we first got an error message about the videos. After installing the k-lite codec the task runs smoothly. We would like to use the task in a web setting (Inquisit web 4) and I am wondering whether there is any other way to fix this problem. I assume that running the task will depend on whether the participant has installed this codec on their device, right?
Many thanks for your help!

Correct. If you want to avoid the necessity of the participant having to install a particular codec (pack) first, chose a codec for your videos that's available on most systems out-of-the-box. That would be either MPEG-2 (which should work under both Windows and OSX), or administer different video formats via conditional <include> elements to Windows vs. OSX users (e.g. WMV for Windows, MOV for OSX; cf. https://www.millisecond.com/forums/Topic9930.aspx ).
