Why doesn the sound play in a digital video sprite in the same Director movie when played in both Director for Windows and Director for Macintosh?
Many possible causes: the digital video’s sound won’t play if the digital video cast member property dialog “Sound” checkbox is disabled. Or: “Play every frame” is enabled.

Q: Why are the colors of my graphics sprites all messed up, but the digital video sprite on the same frame looks fine, or, conversely: why are the colors in the digital video sprite all messed up, but the graphic sprites in the same frame look fine? A: A custom palette for either the digital video or graphics may be improperly implemented (for detailed information concerning custom palettes and digital video. Or: Under Windows, this problem may be a symptom of an incompatible SVGA driver (try the generic Microsoft SVGA driver, or an updated driver from the video card vendor).
