That's really cool!

I did something similar to this not long ago, rendering PDF slides
into an OpenGL environment as textures or 3D objects.
The code is in the swftools CVS, under lib/devices/opengl.c

It's via an implementation of gfxdevice, a graphic device abstraction
used in SWFTools. (see lib/gfxdevice.h)

As soon as I get my old TV working again I'll upload a video. Or
is there some easy way to capture an OpenGL animation to a movie file
on Linux?

Wouldn't it be simpler if the ogreswf plugin would be able to read
SWFs directly? 
I'm not that familiar with ogre, so I don't know what capabilities the
plugins have (or which language they're written in...?)

Do you have access to OpenGL functions from Ogre? I've made some good
experience with the tesselation functions of OpenGL. See
lib/devices/opengl.c for details.
