Can a Movie be the Texture of a GUI Texture?

Unity Engine

I’ve placed a movie as the Texture for the GUI Texture; however, I’m having a bugger of a time activating it. I want it to play when I run over an object.

The code I’m using is:

var moviegui:GameObject;

function OnTriggerEnter (GraphicsGuy : Collider) {
PlayMovieFunction();
}

function PlayMovieFunction(){

moviegui.renderer.material.mainTexture.Play();
}

I’m just not sure how to call it up in the function so it burrows down to the movie Texture. Please help.

Maybe something in the lines of the code blow works, have not tested it though.

public class MovieGUI : MonoBehaviour {

    void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) {
        if(texture == null) return;
        MovieTexture movieTex = (MovieTexture)texture;
        movieTex.Play();
    }

}
