So, what does the Video URl in Metadata actually do?

I thought it may stream a video of gameplay/trailer for games, but not 100 percent on it as I'm a recent adopter of LB/BB. Is there a way to drop a url from whereever for gameplay vids in BB - like for the CoinOP theme BG for example - or do you really have to find Vidsnaps or subscribe to EmuMovies as well? My internet is decent but my HDD is struggling for space as is. Cheers for any info!

All default controls and logic in both apps use local videos only and don't stream videos from the net at all. It MAY be possible to pass the URL to our newer FlowVideo control, but I've never tested it to know if it works, and what types of URL's it would or would not play nice with.

I've got a 4 day weekend mate,  so I can give that a crack and muck about with it. Is the details of FLowVideo in the Documentation somewhere? Or is it in the forums here?
