I've never tried it on a Pi, so there's a chance it may not work, but the way I'd accomplish it on my desktop is with these two commands:
pcmanfm --desktop-off mplayer --rootwin --loop=0 -ao null /path/to/movie.mp4 & (File managers like PCManFM generally draw icons by creating a window which fills the screen. Once you've turned that off, MPlayer can draw into the root window, which is the true desktop background.) You can do this with any application that has a flag that tells it to draw to the root window. For example: /usr/lib/xscreensaver/cloudlife -root & (You're basically hacking together the same kind of thing Android uses for Live Wallpapers.)
