Strobing .mov Flash File. Why?

The designer just sent me a .mov file that was converted from a Flash file. So it is a .mov w/ embedded Flash. It is 800x600 1.3MB - Under properties it shows a flash track with format "Flash."
Using Quicktime 7.1.3 - (with the Flash option turned on) the .mov plays fine when opened in Quicktime.
However, when selected and played (Play Loop Forward) in Catalyst 4.05_m50UB_HD the file stobes at approximately 24 flashes /second.
Any Ideas?
Not having that problem with other .mov files with a "video track" and photo JPEG compression.
Thanks,
Michael
PS. I also posted this in the Quicktime thread. Sorry for the duplication.

  • It turns out that the quicktime file had been set to start playing when opened. Setting Catalyst to "Play Loop Forward" caused the movie to display the In Frame every time Catalyst accessed the file. Setting the control to "Display the In Frame" caused the movie to play without strobing.
    Though I could find a way to turn off the Autostart feature in the file I could not find a way to make it stick. Sounds like I need an education in Quicktime.
