CHEWY: cutscenes not playing/easily get skipped

[afreickmann]

Something seems to be off with the video playback. Some cutscenes seems to be easily skippable or just crash earl. By using the Video Player, I was e.g. not able to play the Video "Archaelogists Rodeo", which is the Kong video. It crashs way too early, you should be actually able to see the archaelogists running for their life.

• Intro missing
• throwing the sandwich on F5 torture room
• tv control room guy chasing for the fire
• the fight of the director with the actress at the jungle set
• Kong getting activated
• when the Kong is on rampage, the scene where he chases the pyramid robbers
• Kong vs Borx

Everything works correctly here. Are you sure this is an actual bug?

Changing to pending (works for me)

I will double check next weekend, maybe I had a wrong version, but especially the Lost Valley was quite problematic. I never got the scene with the director and the actress, when entering the screen, but this might be an odd side effect to the other #13594 issue.

Anyway, it seems its my trigger happy self, who makes this scenes skipping. But I would call it a bug, as I can reproduce it by pressing the skip button during the scene BEFORE the cutscene. As an example skip the dialogue in the monkey scene and see how the cutscene gets skipped. You can even see it when the Kong moves through the jungle and you press (several seconds before the cutscene) the skip button -> the next cutscene gets skipped.
I assume the skip trigger is not getting reset with every room change, resulting in skipping the next skippable scene.
