I'm not sure why you are unable to see the movies. It's happening for a lot of people with older or badly installed ATI drivers. You may want to uninstall your ATI drivers, delete all DLL files starting with ATI, and install the latest 5.2 Catalyst driver again.

 

I can tell you that the movies are recorded at 640x480 and that playing them in a different resolution won't make them look better. You may want to try changing the settings under [Display Options] in swkotor2.ini to get the movies to play in another resolution or at least change the refresh rate and see if that improves things for you.

 

Sorry I did not have a better answer.

allready tried to reinstall 5.2 drivers

i can see most of the movies

thats the prob.

why i can see 50% and the other 50% i got a blackscreen but can hear the sound ??

i think its no ati problem, cause the movies doesnt use opengl oder D3D

In the ini file I changed the Display Options Width and Height to match my desktop and the movies look MUCH better.
