Aha!
So now we just have to find a really old version of MacroMind Director,
back when it replaced VideoWorks.

I probably know more that I should :)

it requires MultiFinder and the RAM cache to be off, that's probably an
inherent limitation of the runtime programme itself and can't be solved
with a bit of resource editing.
