#10597: Myst: Black/frozen graphic at the start of Myst flyby animation
-------------------+----------------------------
Reporter:  mgiuca  |      Owner:  (none)
    Type:  defect  |     Status:  new
Priority:  normal  |  Component:  Engine: Mohawk
Keywords:          |       Game:  Myst
-------------------+----------------------------
 Version: 2.1.0git
 Game: Myst Masterpiece Edition (GOG version, June 2018)
 OS: Windows 10

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. Start a new game.
 2. Watch the introduction where the book falls onto the ground.
 3. Click the book.
 4. Watch the small video of flying to the island and landing on the dock.

 Note that when the book first opens, the panel is black for a few seconds.
 Then it is frozen for a few seconds on the water. After that, the video
 resumes as normal.

 **This is not a ScummVM issue; it is a problem with the data file
 QTW\INTRO\INTRO2.MOV.** However, [https://www.scummvm.org/news/20180629/
 this news page] tells us to report bugs here for issues with the Myst 25th
 Anniversary launch.

 This has always been an issue with Myst Masterpiece edition since its 2000
 release. However, it was not an issue with the original Myst game (at
 least in the 1996 Windows release). So it should be possible to fix this
 data file by splicing in the first few seconds of video from the original,
 un-remastered, Myst game. This isn't really something the ScummVM team can
 do, it's more of a question of updating the data files for the 25th
 Anniversary release.
