Hi and welcome to the contest! Good luck.
As for your questions, I won't help you much.
1. Dark GDK should have some sort of video playback implemented. If it hasn't, you have a problem. In that case, you can either use the frame-by-frame technique you proposed or create a semblance of video in real time (you can make characters move and so on using programming code, not using any video), or you can put only intro video in there, separately in the game folder. The first option is obviously the best, try to ask on DarkGDK forums.
2. If you are using .NET, you may use System.IO.File functions. If not, you can use C++ functions for file input/output. Look for "C++ read text from file" on google.
