Windowed FMVs with patched FFXII

Why FMV is Windowed on a patched FFXII when it run from HDD ? Original game show full screen FMVs.

Added some pics :

- Original FFXI DVD
- FFXII from HDD with patchs (video lng)

I notice something good, on SCPH-10000 (or external PCMCIA drives, I don't know...) I have no shuttering on FMV when the game run from HDD without patch.

I can't answer you why it gives you a "windowed" effect if you ran it off your external HDD... but I can probably explain to you why you don't get any stuttering.

If you installed the game to the HDD, then it won't stutter (Sony makes *bug-free* drivers :lol:).
If you used Open PS2 Loader (It's the only PS2 game loader I know that has support for the external PCMCIA HDD unit), it has got a better system than HDloader to prevent the game from causing stuttering.

Kermit/DBGCore also features this, afaik. ;)
Other than that, it is also possible to start games through the HOSDSYS (HD-Update for Sonys OSDSYS) directly, which probably includes those PS2s which have a PCMCIA-Slot, instead of an 'ExpansionBay'.
