This thing first:
I'm telling them to install CCCP because, without K-lite, they won't be able to play most movies for their own personal enjoyment. I'm just trying to help out, and I've clarified this already.
And I'm telling you that it's not required to install CCCP. Once you got the FMVs to work, you can install that kLite Codec Pack which you hate so much (for whatever reason), and nothing will happen. It was the solution I've been posting for few years already and I can't really remember anyone complain. Once people figured out that it was due to ffdshow, the solution changed. Then it changed again when the AVI splitter issue was discovered, but basically in your solution of:
- Uninstall klite
- Get your FMVs to work by installing filter from InstallCD
- Install CCCP so you regain the possibility to watch "normal" movies
You can easily replace those 4 letters you advertise so much with "kLite" and you'd get the same result.
And yes, I was joking. When someone says "my computer is stuck", it obviously means nothing in technical terms, which makes using such information funny during a diagnosis.
No reason to get offended now that I've told you twice that I was simply kidding. God forbid if I was actually being serious.
How often do you make fun of people
who don't KNOW you and then act like "geez, man relax" "just kidding, chill" and don't even call them with their full name? Oh, and then you post in other thread "I'm the Mother Teresa of this board and somehow people are aggressive against me". Know what I mean?
On the other hand, I gotta apologize to you, it was really not directed at you - if I got the nick right the first time, I wouldn't bother to post (you can see the edit, I missed the nick and thought that it was
venucci posting), you just somehow managed to get it redirected. And kudos to you for typing my nick correctly. The first time.
Sorry about the confusion,
The Intro movie hangs at the end when showing "Final Fantasy 7". With hanging I mean I can't do anything but restart my pc by hitting the reset button.
I did installed directshow from the CD and I also tryed, tryed patch 1.02, upside down patch etc.
I read a lot of forums trying to fix this but none worked, hope you guys can help me out 
Probably nothing wrong with codecs if you see the FMVs in game. Some information would be useful now:
- The edition of your FF7 (like platinum etc.)
- Size of your "opening.avi" movie (in bytes) - it should be on CD1 in "ff7\movies" directory
- Length of the mentioned movie (in seconds, minutes:seconds, doesn't matter) - just open it with any player and write it down
