Video wiewing capability in CEGUI and OGRE

[saurabh]

Hi:

Is there any way to view video files in CEGUI based window.
Is there any player integrated with CEGUI in past?

Any information on this will be of great help.

Thanks
Saurabh

I don't have any concrete examples but it should be fairly easy. A video is just a stream of image data, so as long as you can decode that data and store it into a texture, then CEGUI can render that texture on a window. I've seen tutorials for this on the web, and I've seen this done in the past using straight OpenGL.
