Okay, I'll bite. Why? If you want to play a movie inside an RB app, well...
If you don't mind playing it outside the app, there are solutions, but
they involve external apps, like mplayer [which is available on all 3
platforms, and can be called from a shell class].
But the question remains... Why? Oh Why?
