Rhanks Jacob!
This is the kind of exhaustive answers I am desperately needing. Thanks also
to Irv for his tip with D8.5. I used the D8.5 Trial to see, if I could
expect to migrate smoothly, but am afraid my tests weren't successful...
As I'm in a rush, I'd try to cut the BS, and get right to the point...

Tried it, Made a faststart, used SW8 (build 198) components (except
proj.dll, which did not exist in my SW folder and had to use the one in Dir8
(build 178))... Problem persisted.
Tried to use the external faststart resources from SW8.5 (build 321) and
the problem was totally GONE! Nasty part is that using a D8 faststart with
D8.5 projector resources mad my app extremely crash-happy. I'll try some
different setups with this, but I'm afraid it won't amount to much... Still
hoping though!
BTW, is build 198 the latest build available for SW8?

Not possible 550 external JPEG's, roughly 4500 alphamaniac's (I've been able
to verify it has nothing to do with alphamania)

Can't afford to make my sounds QuickTimes...

As mentioned above, Migrating to D8.5 is probably not an option.
I'm really starting to regret being intimidated to go for D8 on this
project.
Keep thoughs Ideas coming people, you are a tremendous help!
