You just double click the .reg file, it'll warn you not to add just any old reg files, just click okay. And you'll be good to go
 
Hi guys, I've been using this, but I noticed that the video cames first, and the audio cames later.
Any solution for this?

I'm Using Windows 7 Ultimare
Phenom X4 II 955
GeForce 9800 GT

Thanks

And I want to use that because I've noticed that some .avi files from the original disc, don't have sound! And I don't know why! Maybe is a codec missing?
 
Which FMV's specifically? (what parts of the game) i have not run into these issues yet myself.
 
Install k lite mega codec pack and see what happens.

Reinstall true motion as well.

Ignore that. 

Aali's driver is required to play the FMV's.  The new FMV's (and indeed ANY with the driver) are not played by ANY external codec.  And before you give help (above), please get informed first.
 
There are some videos that have no music. That's correct, because the game uses a midi there.
 
On the first, when you start a New Game.

I have no issue with that video at all, sound is synced up perfectly. Try a reinstall of the files? Which version of Aali's driver are you running?

The last i think, but well forget, I'm playing with the old FMVs :p
 
i copied the fmv's from the game discs into a movies directory and edited the registry to point to it, that worked fine, ff7 played like a dream.

installed restoration and every time it tries to play the sqlogo video ff7 crashes with the "oops!...." dialogue box.

i swithed out that vid for the original and then it gets to menu fine and plays fine, if i select new game though the new opening fmv plays but the sound is sparadic.

i know i should do an install with just fmv restoration installed but to be honest if you or anyone can think of something it could be i will just stick to the old fmv's
 
Yeah i really dont think it is an issue with any mods or anything maybe a setting in the driver or maybe windows or my hardware, also rereading through notice that sound issues are inherant with windows 7

and it crashed on that video?  Well I cant see how that happens...  you are using latest aali driver?  send the crash dump to aali.

Yeah using the latest driver (0.7.11b) and yeah i am stumped as to why it crashes too, maybe its my graphics card driver.

Anyway sent Aali the app.log and crash.dmp hopefully he can shed some light onto it.

Watched your fmv's in vlc player and i really hope it can be resolved cos they look awesome.

i really do find it amusing that you sound surprised every time someone points this out, DLPB. my GUESS is that there are more people that CANT use your vids than can.

cant see how Menu can affect them.  Send app log

hes not saying the MENU overhaul is causing the video to crash hes saying when he tries your restored videos they crash.

The solution that those of us who CANT use DLPBs video restoration have found is to USE TROJAKS MOVIES INSTEAD
