Playing Audio and Video Files in MAXQDA

To execute playback of the sound of a media file in MAXQDA:

  1. Ensure that the “Media player” toolbar is visible. It can be accessed through View > Media Player in the main menu.
  2. Double-click on the document to which the media file is assigned in the Document System to open it.
  3. Click on the icon Play/Pause  on the “Media player” toolbar or press the F4 or F5 key.
  4. To display the image in a video file, click the Multimedia Browser  symbol in the "Media Player" toolbar.
Note: If a transcript is empty, the Multimedia Browser will open automatically when you double-click on the text document to which the video file is assigned in the Document System. In this case, MAXQDA assumes that you wish to work directly with the video file.
