I have to wait a really long time the first time I watch one But after I watch it they seem to come up pretty quick again

 Just wait longer and it should eventually go!

It did play after 7mins! but when the comic code appeared my game crashed...x_x, an froze my pc, had to reboot =(

I still prefer the old cinematics system, I don't like the monochome comic style and MxO won't display the movie...

I hear the sound.... so it seems to be an overlay problem.... reinstalled windows and still problem remains upgraded to wmp11 gotten divx... nothing helps... only if I play the cinematics directly in WMP outside the game (using MxOresource's links) there's no problems....

I never had trouble with the old system...
