The people who created the movie codec seems to have stopped doing them now as it says on their website "duck.com" so its hard to know if the codec here is the latest version, i fixed the north crater clip crash by making an image of disc 2 (using nero image maker), editing it by removing the crater clip using ULTRA ISO "in movies folder" encoding it using eo video to AVI no compression, it will stop around 18 seconds as soon as it does stop encoding, you may have to force it to stop, watch clip and you may still have same error with black screen message after few seconds complaining to update, use avi/mpeg splitter and cut off a few seconds before that message, watch clip so theres no traces of that message, rename to same as original (delete original) add back into image (I used Ultra ISO) Mount image into Daemon tools software and run game, what i saw was the clip was a tiny square on the screen, it got past it fine. I thought all this was because i took Aeris with me LOL but all seems well. Hope i helped.
