Could be done . . . right?

Managed to download the Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++ pdf, and get my programming block off (for now).
Now to the question. I've had this software idea (part of the reason i'm learning c++). It'll have checkboxes or buttons that when checked or clicked will bring out a demo video or what that function will do. There will be multiple checkboxes and/or buttons and each will show a video of what was checked or clicked will do.
Is this possible. If you need more details, please ask.
Thanks.

Yes, that is possible but you will need to learn a bit more, and are the videos going to be in a folder or website?

The videos will be in the software. It won't be a website but a downloadable software like maya. For example, you click on a button that says 'drift 1' and a video box will come up showing the video of the drift and if you choose it, it'll form a set of codes for it.

Okay but sorry I don`t understand now, are trying to make a program that you just click a button or click a check box and a video will pop up or a video editing software?

It has nothing to do with a video editing software. Like i said in the previous post, there'll be multiple checkboxes or buttons. Say there is drift 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and you click each one, a video will pop up showing what drift 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 is and depending on which you select, it'll generate the code for it (i'll be the one to put the code for each of the buttons/checkboxes) and place it in the project so you don't have to code anything.

Original Question:
My interpretation of you second post:
My interpretation of you third post:
Hmm, the goal of "your program" is ambiguous, but if your question was referring to:
whether or not it is possible to show a demonstration of a video
and
if it was possible load the video file into memory?
Yes that would be possible.
To show a video demonstration from your program, you will have to use some kind of media-library; a video file does not play itself.
Loading a video file into memory is more simpler. All you would need to do is read the file as binary and store it as a character array.
Since your asking this question and stated that you're learning c++ (still learning), I would recommend that you break this project into smaller modules first and learning/working with one functionality at a time.
Consider making simple individual programs that implement a single function at a time.

The button clicking and check boxes are another thing...

@dput: Drift 1 in this case has to do with a car (a 3d car) and if you choose drift 1 for the car, it'll generate a set of codes for that drift style and apply it to the car. The video demo is to show what the function you are choosing will do.
Still confused. I could explain again.

I am not sure what kind of response you're expecting.
Yes, it is possible.
My approach would be:
opengl for the vehicle,
simple algorithm for drift_function/method,
opengl of 3d car (demo).
What is it that you need help with?
