--------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION

Black squares appear at random locations in the video. Depending on the
type of processor in the system, the problem occurs in the beginning of
a movie, but might last for the duration.

RESOLUTION

Pause the video playback for 2 to 5 seconds.

The problem is caused by a background task of the video system
translating the movie's colors to the current colors in use on the 
system. On some systems, translation does not occur before playback is 
started.
