Yes,

You can play a video in a FloatLayout.  I do not see a Video widget in your code below.  I suggest starting with a simple example to get a video playing in a FloatLayout.

yes I did tried that and here is my code I just don't know how to use it inside floatlayout

from kivy.app import App

from kivy.uix.video import Video



class ScreensApp(App):
    def build(self):
        video = Video(source ="k.mp4" )
        video.state = "play"
        video.options= {'eos':'loop'}
        video.allow_stretch = True
        return video
       

if __name__ == "__main__":
    ScreensApp().run()

Here is an example.  I suspect the issue is setting the state to play at the same time you are creating with widget.

In the example below I create a Boxlayout, put the video in a FloatLayout nested in the BoxLayout (although that is not really needed here.)

I use a BoxLayout at the bottom to create a play and stop button to control the video.

 

The advantage of a FloatLayout is that it honors the position and size of the child widget relative to the window.  If you wanted the video a specific size and a specific window position, a FloatLayout is an appropriate tool. 

 

 

 

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.lang import Builder

kv = """
BoxLayout:
    orientation: 'vertical'
    FloatLayout:
        Video:
            id:video
            source: 'sample-mp4-file.mp4'
            allow_stretch: True
    BoxLayout:
        size_hint_y: None
        height: 48
        Button:
            text: 'Play'
            on_release: video.state = 'play'
        Button:
            text: 'Stop'
            on_release: video.state = 'stop'

"""


class ScreensApp(App):
    def build(self):
        return Builder.load_string(kv)
