I don't have a link, but you can render to an RGB software surface
offscreen, and then use glTexImage2D/glTexSubImage2D to put it on a
quad. Please note that older hardware has limits on the size of a
texture (256x256 on a Voodoo3...modern hardware has an insane upper
limit, though), and that your movie needs to be in power-of-two
dimensions.

Render-to-texture is another option.
