Interesting problems, but I only have DP1 (which I don't use) and Dreamkey 3
(which i do use!).


Certainly, the movie playing before its finished is wierd. I can only say it
must be a bug in the DP sofware (where it believes the file is fully loaded when
it isn't!) since I don't think the programmers would allow it to start playing
before its fully loaded as there would be a danger of it possibly crashing the
Dreamcast, or at the very least corrupting the screen display.
