The Hong Kong Copyright Ordinance strictly regulates the public performance (playing) of videos.
According to section 43(2) of the Ordinance, playing or showing a video on campus for the purpose of giving or receiving instruction to an audience consisting mainly of teachers, students and their parents/guardians is allowed.
Other public performances (e.g. for entertainment purposes) may require further licensing and permission from the copyright owner or a licensing body.
