Group: Forum Members Posts: 1, Visits: 4	hi guys! Up until now I have only done text-based IAT, but right now I am trying to program a Task with Pictures and a Video. I have 600 Pictures (flowers and Spiders) and would like to Display each 2 Pictures simultaneously, side by side, the participant then should choose one of them with either the L or A key. I cannot seem to figure out how to put all the Pictures in Inquisit. Also I would like to put in a Video before presenting the Stimuli but Inquisit keeps telling me it is unable to open the file (although I saved it as a .wmv file) Could you help me please? Thanks in advance!! Tags picture

I recommend working through the picture IAT tutorials included in the Inquisit documentation. The same applies to videos: Set up a <video> element as needed, display it via <trial>'s /stimulustimes or -frames. With respect to your particular video: > Inquisit keeps telling me it is unable to open the file (although I saved it as a .wmv file) It means something is wrong with your video or your system (no appropriate codec to render the file). It is unclear what "saved it as a .wmv file" means -- for example, merely giving a certain file a particular file extension does not necessarily make it such a file. If I save a .doc file with a .pdf extension, the Word documentation doesn't suddenly become a PDF.
