If the video always crashes at the same spot, I'd think that the disc is scratched or something. Try switching the movie resolution to low in FF8Config -- there are actually two versions of every movie on the disc, and chances are that the low resolution version will be able to play fine.

There is no movie patch for FF8 like there is for FF7. It uses Bink video, there's no need for a DirectShow codec.
