Unfortunately no.  We don’t provide an API that gives you direct file access.

However, you can use our media.selectVideo() API instead…

   https://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/media/selectVideo.html

This API displays a window to the user asking them to select a video.  The limitation though is that the end-user will only be able to select video files that the external video apps is aware of.  Such as video captured by the default camera app.
