Well, there is another (more CPU and disk-space intensive) way...a while 
back I experimented with DF3s, building a block where each slice is a 
frame of an animation, then translating the texture through a container 
which only shows one slice at a time, and having the media of the 
density map set to be either emitting (for a CRT) or absorbing (for a 
filmstrip)...
