[PD] most stable/efficient way/object to play large video files?

[chris clepper]

The size of the movie on disk should be irrelevant.  It can be two frames or
twenty hours long and it makes no difference since only one frame is used at
a time.

pix_film/movie on OSX has worked well over an incalculable amount of
testing.
