Well, there is the main menu, the credits and the occasional pause in the movies. ;-)

It is actually- should I locate and move it?

Edit
I can't find BigMovie.movie- but I do have BigMovie_hq.ogg in that same folder.

Further Edit
Perhaps unsurprisingly the movies play perfectly in VLC.

That's a different file.

Unfortunately, I don't have a solution for you right now. My guess for a while has been "too slow to buffer audio" in Theora, but your machine should easily be able to handle it. My 11/12-year-old iMac G4 is able to play the Theora videos fine even, so not having it play fine on yours is a bit scary.

Your efforts are appreciated. Presto Studios seems content to blame Windows and leave it at that- or at least I haven't heard talk of a forthcoming fix. . .

What about reencoding the offending movies or perhaps using the original versions of the Macintosh release?

Perhaps you misunderstand. This all comes back to me. I'm the developer.

There will be a fix eventually, hopefully. For now, there is none.

I didn't mean to offend- the situation is just frustrating. I'm glad the issue is being looked into, that's all I wanted to hear. Thanks for your help.
