Is there a function to change the Video Source filename of an input without adding a new Input?

I would like to have one video source input that the reference file is changed with a shortcut.'

In Titles, we can change the Image filename, it would be nice if we could do the same with a video input!

Use a list input and ListRemove shorcut, ListAdd shortcut for other video

Video input and title input = apple and oranges

I was thinking about this very thing. Was hoping for /API/?Function=ChangeVideoSource&FileName=[path or url of file]

is why list has functions to add and remove. a list can be less then 2 items ;-)
And function can be multiple under the same shortcut key or combined in a script
