Does GC support some sort of video playback? Or plans for this in the future?
I just want a simple *.avi to play on startup.

The engine supports Ogg/Theora video playback.  There isn't an easy mechanism for playing a video full screen at the moment however.  This is something that i'll add to the 'todo' list again - it got overlooked to date.

One way that we've done this for internal projects is to just use a flat plane object, set to billboard (via the OPR properties) and then apply the theora video as the diffuse texture for the object.  place in front of the camera and voila ;}

It's kind of clunky, but can be done.
