The Bink video window is all black, or the player crashes immediately. I get noise and patterns in the black areas of my video. Turn up the contrast adjustment. The higher the contrast, the blacker you blacks will appear. Try starting with 20 and adjust up or down from there.
New files appear at the very end of the main file dialog.
Scroll to the end of the file list, or resize the Bink player window to see your new file. This usually means you have a bad DirectDraw video driver. When this problem occurs, your video driver is telling Bink that it is capable of a certain type of video playback which it really cannot perform. If this happens, the video frames won't be displayed by your video driver, and you see all black, or all purple. To fix this problem, you can either try to find newer video drivers, switch video cards completely, or experiment with the other blitting styles in the Advanced Bink Playback screen.
