I tracked the commit breaking this to a change in gui/Player.cpp (my own commit). The change is to avoid calling get_movie_info before opening the SWF.
The get_movie_info simply reads the *whole* SWF and returns info found in the header. Readin a *full* SWF includes fetching from the net (for remote files), uncompressing (for compressed files) and a bunch of function calls to the stream class. So, it *is* worth removing. I see no obvious side-effects to that call, except maybe timing. Since removing that call introduces text problems, I think this bug is related to others that report startup_frames settin changing text quality.
