There are two video plugins in ogreaddons section.

FFmpeg - plays many formats, however, for multiple reasons, I no longer support or work on that plugin. A quick search for my post relating to ffmpeg will illustrate why.

Theora Plugin - plays ogg Theora video with Vorbis audio stream. http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... bit+stream That still roughly applies. In videoplugin (ogreaddons) there are two Theora test apps. One uses CEGUI, and the other uses Ogre overlays... Which happens to play full screen.

I have added an entry to the Ogre wiki about video for future reference and guidance.

Good Job using the wiki 8) Keep up the good work on the theora plugin too.
