Whats the best size movie to use in 10 x 10 prim box?

Stepping inside a black 10 x 10 was a cool experience and was something I was looking for. The box had a movie on the inside of each wall. It was moving skies and water and looked real.
What size movie would be a reasonable for one side of a 10 X 10 largest prim box. Would I work in ratios, 10 x 40, if i wanted the movie to cover all sides of the box? What is the limit to the length of the movie? 30 seconds? Are there any free movies I can pick up in SL to experiment with?

I have no idea what you saw there.. but it was probably not an animation, it was probably just an animated texture. Animated textures work in a very strange manner in SL, you need to put all frames of the animation on a grid inside ONE image, then use a script to more the image around. so that in itself brings in resolution limitations, the more frames you want the smaller the images have to be.

I think you're right about that. I does look like a picture with cloud and water texture. When you said that, It sounded like it wasn't possible to run movies inside the walls of the boxes. I hope its possible. Thats the whole idea of my project. What I want was to have one movie stretched across four walls of a prim box. Or each movie ( or slideshow) on each wall all playing in sync meaning they start and end at the same time. Or a viewer clicks on a switch pad and each of the 4 walls displays a picture. Is that possible? Any help will get me started in my project to teach tai chi to the viewers.
