    You'll almost definitely need two components for this job. For Jpeg display,
    just use a TImage - Add 'jpeg' to your uses clause. You can use TMediaPlayer
    for playing AVIs, but the user needs the correct codecs installed. If the
    AVIs are uncompressed, you might find playing tools on http://www.torry.net
    .
