[Papervision3D] Playing with video

[Oscar Trelles]

Hi Roland,

What I am doing is creating a single video object, and then capture the data 
using a BitmapData object, which is used as the BitmapMaterial for all the 
faces of the cube. That way, I only need to update the BitmapData, and don't 
have to worry about controlling audio.
