NoMachine has announced that NXv4 will have support for videos,  
animations etc. If X2go continues using NX libraries and the NX video  
stuff will be released as GPL then there probably is a chance of being  
able to use animated graphics in the near(?) future. I guess that  
NXing video streams will be quite CPU intensive, though. So this will  
probably not be suitable for terminal servers.

However, if you can play a video file locally then you should prefer that!!!
(there is no real need to X2go-tunnel Youtube, is it?)

Best,
mike
