Trying to get another game working with PlayOnLinux, Mass Effect. It was difficult to install, but now when I run it, everything is smooth up until the point where character setup is confirmed. The intro movie starts playing sound, but there is no picture, just black screen, and no keyboard or mouse response. I have to switch to a vt and kill wine. I ran PlayOnLinux in a terminal to see if there were errors being shown, but there are none.

A comment on wine appdb said to disable motion-blur effects. This remedied the video playback problem. Sorry for posting all these premature help requests.
