That should defintiely work, I've run it on slower machines. It depends a lot on your graphics card too. As for video playback, if you want to manipulate the video, then you should convert it to a JPEG (aka MJPEG) codec. .mov is a pretty common container format for JPEG videos.
There are three different codecs named JPEG, MJPEG-A and MJPEG-B. They are very similar but not fully interchangeable. So, you can't just say «aka».
I say 'aka' because unfortunately its not that simple. I believe that Apple labeled JPEG in .mov as "Motion JPEG" for a while, and it was just a JPEG codec. But it was not MJPEG. So the whole naming is messed up.
In any case, JPEG is the one that most people want.
