Goddamn is this annoying. I can't get any farther in FF9 (still) because my PS freezes during a FMV.

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS"; text-align: left; '>I thought the story line was way better than FF7. Never played FF8 but many say it's better than that too. But...we're all entitled to our opinion. This was a far less confusing and less conflicting FF story.</div>

If the beginning of the FMV starts, you can bypass the whole thing by opening the psx and then closing it.
