The movie is selected, Playmode is "display Inframe" and Inframe via HUD/Wireshark and all artnet monitoring devices is shown to be at 150 yet Catalyst is displaying frame 0 (1st frame of the movie)
We changed the cueing today so that the first cue selects the movie and sets PlayMode to Display InFrame and then a few seconds later set InFrame to 150 and all worked fine.
So it appears to me that the movie takes some time to load and by the time it is loaded Catalyst has tossed the state change from frame 0 to frame 150.
