    Way to watch the Intro Movie

    As far as I am aware, there is no way to watch the beautiful FMV movie, other than watching a blurry cropped version on youtube, or by starting again.

    FF XIV has an option from the main menu, I think it would be nice if there was a similar option in FF11.

    Of course if its already there and I just haven't found it yet, I apologise for spamming the forum.

    Another thing about the opening movie (when you start FFXI) Whenever i let it run say, 20-30 seconds into it when i skip it or watch it then hit the "I Agree" botton i get booted off for timing out

    He mentioned that in his post, he was asking for alternative means. Something outside of the game that doesn't require to start the game, or something inside the game that doesn't require to quit.

    IIRC, the video is a plain MOV or AVI file in the game folders, that you can play with any decent media player.

    Where did he mention that? Anyway, yeah, you can set the opening movie to play every time you start the game in the config program.

    It's a PMV file...think it was similar to H264. Couldn't find a standalone player for it--VLC player tries to open it, but tanks. DivX threw up on it too. My old PS2 Movie Player (SKS) didn't recognize the extension either.
