Is this for playing video in 3d space (like a TV in-game), or rather as intros and such?
Thanks!

you can play videos on any 3d geometry but also as a 2d overlay

yes, as yoursort said, you can put the video on preety much everything.
The video frames get transfered to a texture which can be used as any other texture in your program. It can even be used as a source for pixel shaders!
