Is there a way to add a video frame to to these panels?

It's not possible to use any local video files as far as I know, although there might be undocumented features to do it. There is a YouTube player class however, take a look at panorama/layout/youtube_player.vxml_c and panorama/scripts/youtube_player.vjs_c inside \tools\steamvr_environments\game\steamtours\pak01_dir.vpk Rectus (talk) 19:26, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Is there a way to launch external executables from a custom panel?

This would not be hosted/submitted to the Workshop. We're looking for a way to create a standalone/local VR Home with panels to launch standalone VR apps located on the local machine. Alternatively, is there a way to link the panel to launch apps indexed in the playlist tool?
