Actually, video comes from "to see" and "to hear" so it's only video when it has sound.. The word implies nothing about the medium.. It's a moving picture came

  Strict etymology is not the best way to understand a word. Video here makes sense in a few ways, particularly because it's all but certain that what will be viewed is a digital scan and not a projection and because the audience may be more familiar with the word. However, in a professional or technical context, video always refers to electronic movies and is not used when the medium is film. For example, when you say a movie was shot on video, then you are saying it was not recorded on film.
