Avi player code -difficult?

I was snopping around Tribes 2 when i noticed something: the opening screen is an AVI! I could swear Torque didn't have this feature... (i mean, the already-running simple code implemented, that is) :6
Of course, as always, documentation didn't mentioned anything... so did the forum, people simply didn't mention avi playing nowhere... so, wich instruction plays an avi, or mpeg, or Divx, whathever?
Is it only when missions are not loaded? That's a huge step towards easy storyline manipilation in the game... any help would be welcome.

Thanks in advance;
