[Dark Cloud 2] Game freezes while waiting for video to start

[tealalchemist]

In the game code there is a function like this to start the intro movies

Play(movie);

while (!IsStarted(movie))
{
  SwitchThread(movie);
}

But IsStarted never returns true.

The function that sets the variable that causes this function to return true is stepMain()
This function checks on movie/audio/iop stuff

Forcing the variable to true will allow you to skip the movie as normal
