Startup movie getting cut off
Ever since I installed the latest stable update, my "Saturn" startup movie hasn't been playing normally. I can hear the audio, but the screen is stuck on the initial Deck logo until the end of the animation.

Same here, also with Saturn.

🤔So maybe it's just Saturn? Anyone having problems with other movies?

I only have a hand full of startups but it seems to be an exclusive issue with Saturn :(

Ok, then I'll use a different one for now. Another thing I learned by connecting my Deck to an external monitor and turning it on, the video signal gets cut off entirely while Saturn is playing. Not sure if that's an important detail but might as well mention it.

Excuse the double post but I'm not having very good luck with these things. I decided to switch to Deckfetti but that one is freezing midway on me (fortunately this doesn't lock up the whole system, I can still skip out of it and proceed). A real shame too, it's nice and festive for the season.

The only other ones I got to try are City Night and Ghost Machine, and they seem to be working fine.

The Saturn startup also causing issues for me. All others seem to work. Deleting and restarting the deck, then downloading again doesn't fix it. 🤔

Edit: Even downloading Saturn from Animation Changer (Decky Plug in), Saturn is cut off at the beginning. Seems it's something really specific about the video...

I hope this doesn't get locked from me reviving it, but this is happening to me also. I didn't try saturn or other startup movies from Valve themselves, but I noticed short custom ones never come up. The audio does, but not the movie itself.

I also installed a custom movie that's a bit longer and the video starts playing halfway through while the audio starts much sooner.

This has been happening to me since last year as well after a stable update.
