It depends on what you're trying to do. If you want to add a video background, you would have to do some customization because the theme doesn't support that out of the box. If you just want to embed a video, that should be relatively straight forward.

So it isn't possible to put a video in the (homepage) slideshow banner straight away? What kind of customizing will have to be done to create this?

You can embed a video if you want, but no, it does not support background videos. Here is an addon that seems to support background videos:https://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/more-block-templates...

You might give that a try and see if it does what you need.
