Occurred with me as well. Never played Fallout New Vegas before, fresh install today from Steam, followed instructions from VeryLastKiss's New New Vegas Collection to a T. Please let me know what additional info would be helpful. Either way thanks for the effort, the game continues just fine after the intro is done. I just watched it on youtube - but oof it would be cool to see this version instead.
Happened to me today as well, just did a fresh install and everything through Viva New Vegas to start a fresh playthrough, not sure why the video wont work. Doesn't make a lick of sense. -_-
Also having this issue. Screen gets choppy then freezes, only playing the top left corner of the video. With only a few users reporting this, I suspect it might be a driver issue.
Probably some issue with older hardware. Since the file was in .bik format, it's not very friendly with hardware acceleration, so your CPU has to handle all the load, added with handling NV in the background as well, one hiccups is enough to "de-sync" the whole movie, causing the issue. Though this is just a guess. If you got this issue on a modern hardware, then the only guess is that FNV engine just simply cannot handle a video this heavy. But since this mod seems to be working for alot of people, I doubt this is the case.
Think it has to do with Vsync. As soon as I turned it off in BethsINI, the video played with no problem. And if you still have a problem, you can also open up the mod location through vortex and watch the .bik video on VLC player or something.
Any idea how I could use that Fallout 3 file in Tale of Two Wastelands? Can I just download it through Mod Organizer 2 directly?
EDIT: I can confirm that both mods work perfectly with TTW (I should've known, but I'm no expert). They look wonderful in 60FPS but I will say that the resolution looks no different, probably due to compression which someone else mentioned. If anyone is wondering, I just dragged the .bik files (Fallout INTRO for Fallout 3 and FNVIntro for New Vegas) into the "Video" folder available under the Data tab in MO2, replacing the old versions. Thank you for these mods!
makes no difference because of the re-compression artifacts introduced. might as well stay with the original. good idea, but you'd have to blow it up way more than 1080p to get any quality enhancement at all. i watched both the original and this one side by side and it really is not better at all, it has minor new compression artifacts so what the upscaling might have improved, the re-compression into bik negated again. it's a pat situation really.

Was looking forward to it..

Note: I must buy some sauce, I ran out of ketchup for my fries.Original is 720p.
I'll run a test.
