The only way is using HTML.

If I remember right that @Solidsnake14 created an animated working GIF either through a simple script or a resource.

Using single frames would be very bad in terms of performance. The only performant way is to use CEF.

You don't even have to embed it into an HTML page since opening the video link directly works fine too (keep in mind that proprietary codecs like H.264/MP4 are not supported though).

What's the problem? Sounds are supported out of the box.

Has CEF performance been improved any lately? I've been away for a while and only fiddled with the browser a bit shortly after release. As I recall it, trying to watch .gifs was unbearable, it stuttered a lot. I never did try video playback, though.

Yes, performance has been improved significantly in 1.5.3.
