I thought I saw this somewhere but I can't find it, if this already exists, please point me in the right direction. If not, what I'm looking to be able to do is to play videos on a screen in the game. Not the one where you carry around the screen like an iPad, I saw that video on YouTube and it isn't what I'm looking for. I would like to be able to play a video on a screen in a building, like a movie theater. It could be a video stored locally, on the server or linked to on YouTube or somewhere. The screen's size should be customizable, in other words if you have one block and want that to just be a little TV on a stand in a small room, fine, that's all the bigger the player will be but if you stack 50 blocks high by 200 blocks wide you have a movie screen, not 50x200 individual players. If that makes any sense. It would let people create big movie theaters, even drive-ins (although I'm not sure if anyone's developed a car mod so that might not make a lot of sense) or just put a big screen TV in your house or something.
As an aside that might be an amazing twist on this, if one can call out to a video, why not call out to an image file? Using the same method, you could create a very realistic looking image in Photoshop or something, build a wall out of it and link out to the image file and have it displayed as the wall, so for instance, in the simplest sense, it could give you very realistic and unique wallpaper for your home or an even more impressive facade for your building that looks like a real skyscraper or castle or whatever. In other words, custom blocks determined by the user by pointing to an image file or video file. Right click on the block and provide the URL or path to the image/video and if the blocks are connected to another block directly the image or video is stretched to fit, if they aren't connected they can be linked to another file/url.
