The feedback is meant as suggestions on how to improve. It is quite possible that the judges felt that the students could have presented their information more dynamically in person than by 'pressing play'.

Just because you are allowed to present video as part of a presentation, doesn't always mean it is a good idea... it takes a lot of work and planning to have video enhance a short presentation, and a poor integration of video will almost certainly detract from the presentation.
