Not directly from AVI. Indirectly, yes, if you extract frames. Or yes, if
you use a compatible image file type like PNG. Again, no, not from .avi
unless you extract the frames first.

If you want to create a movie within a movie (POV-Ray animation) effect then
that is possible if you have the individual frames (image files) to input as
a pigment image_map.

You can project the images onto a surface by using filtered transparency in
the image *film*, like when a light shines through a real movie projector
past film and onto screen.

I have a basic (and outdated) example pov and include files of movie within
movie in my "Links" at the website below (please click the [eyes] graphic to
get there).

If you need to know more about something else concerning this just post a
message reply. Especially if you are trying to do more than what I
described.
