Video in Torque

Howdy,
Is it possible to activate mpeg movies in the 3D world in Torque?By this I mean, can I get Torque to play a movie when an object is collided with?

I've read a few threads and resources on video but there doesn't seem to be anything that gives much information about movies in the actual level of a game. All I've read is stuff about movies in the GUI at the start of the game.I'm a Torque newbie so I don't know that much about it's video capabilities.

Anyone have advice?

Theora Texture should get you started in the right direction.

Cheers for the advice. Theora looks good,quality is also very good. I'm testing it at the moment using a 12mb clip. Tends to crash my computer when I play a clip in the "world" of my project. Is it RAM intensive to use video in Torque?Are there limits to the size/length of Theora video clips that Torque will play?My computer is a 516MB computer by d way.
