Why do I keep seeing the transparent grid?

[Duchess]

Hi! I think I may have messed something up, because I haven't had this problem before.

I'm working on my winter jam project, so I'm using a lot of movie backgrounds. The issue is when I fast forward or rewind, I see the transparent grid in between scene changes. I do not see it when playing through at normal speed. I want players to be able to fast forward and rewind without seeing that, of course...

The spot I see it in this code below is right before Iris says "Gaze upon me if you will..."

Code: Select all

#FADE TO BLACK    
    scene black with dissolve

    "An hour passes, and I return with a rabbit as my reward for hunting."
    "Seth built a fire in the meantime." 

#MOUNTAINS
    show mountains with dissolve
    scene snow movie mountainslow with dissolve
    show iris basic1 at left with dissolve

    Iris smirk1 "Gaze upon me if you will. I’ve returned with a feast."

    show seth disbelief at right with dissolve

In this, I tried having the static PNG version of the image show right before the movie starts (which is the same image but with animations)
But I have received the same result as doing the code like this:

Code: Select all

#MOUNTAINS
    scene snow movie mountainslow with dissolve
    show iris basic1 at left with dissolve

Is snow movie mountainslow a movie sprite or simple ATL animation?
scene statement removes all displayables, so you need to call it before you show images you want to stay.

Try it this way

Code: Select all

#FADE TO BLACK    
    scene black with dissolve

    "An hour passes, and I return with a rabbit as my reward for hunting."
    "Seth built a fire in the meantime." 

#MOUNTAINS
    #show the static image of the scene to avoid transparency issues with the dissolve transform.
    scene mountains with dissolve
    #show the scene
    show snow movie mountainslow
    #show sprite
    show iris basic1 at left
    #add transform to the previous two show commands
    with dissolve

    Iris smirk1 "Gaze upon me if you will. I’ve returned with a feast."

    show seth disbelief at right with dissolve
