The following has been submitted as Bugzilla 2258:

I  had written:

> Create two players on a card, set their source (filenames) to two 
> different avi-files.
>
> Resize the players (make them larger) and set their "lock size and 
> position" to true.
>
> Set the alwaysbuffer of the stack to true.
>
> Now if you move the tools palette, the players begin to flash. If you 
> do not move the tools palette, everything is fine. The two players can 
> be played simultaneously.
>
> If you move the tools palette in such a way that it overlaps the 
> player areas, the flashing continues forever and the Rev IDE freezes, 
> i.e. it no longer reacts to any mouseclicks. You have to use the 
> Windows task manager to close the stack and Revolution.
>
> This is with version 2.5R2 (and Windows XP) and Metacard 2.6.1, which 
> uses the same engine. It does not happen in version 2.1.2 or in 
> Metacard 2.5; some flashing occurs, but no crash happens.

> I searched Bugzilla for a related entry, but did not find one.

> Has anybody experienced similar problems?
