Is it possible to create videos in StarterGui's?

Is it possible to make video's in starteguis I'm making a script where you hover your mouse over the tutorial, an animation shows up, Using

Tutorial = script.Parent
Tutorial.MouseEnter:connect(function(Animation)
print(" How would I make a video in a players screen?")
wait(1)
print("I'm guessing it has something to do with FPS??")
wait(2)
print(" I'm guessing it involves Frames Per Second?")
wait(3)
print(" I've seen on Roblox Wiki soemthing about frames before?")
wait(4)
print("But rather just have my question answered here?")

end)

You definitely could, but it'd take a lot more work than you'd think

It would be extremely hard. Only one (known) person has made 60fps video on a Surface/Screen GUI.

Why have so many people down-voted this question? It seems reasonable to me.

The best way to do this is, make drawings for each frame of the video, and upload them as decals, you would need to upload at least 10 decals per second of the video, and then make them change each 1/10 of a second, If you want a good video quality you need to upload 32 decals per second of the video and make them change each 1/32 of a second. So in short words, it's too hard. I would rather make an animation where GUI objects move around explaining everything.

I mean unless ROBLOX allows us to insert videos this will not be possible.

Thanks Dav,cthe film maker

The only way to do this is if you create a bunch of images and make them change.

I will say, I've tried doing this but I had problems with the images unloading with longer animations. This could be fixed using preload and doing stuffs, but I'm not sure about making a good quality 'gif'.
