I heard that you can put videos on planes. How do i do this, just upload a video in a format such as .avi and then what? Once I did that, it did not make a material, which is apparently what it has to do? Is their anything I did wrong, or is this not even possible…
Yes certainly

EDIT: beat me to it
covered the future request also “me thinks”
Thanks guys, but, it doesnt work, it only came up with the quality bar, and no material was made. It is an avi format.
AVI as anything else thats not ogg theora is either converted or won’t do anything.
if it works fine it will show a preview window in the editor when you select it or better offer it and you can click the > button to preview it
keep in mind (just to be sure) that movies are pro only. so if you use the free one, it will never work
